Marty Is Great

Marty Smith does a great job with the podcast and brings his great storytelling skills to the audience. One correction from S6, E6 concerning Kirk Cousins’ golf course. It is not in Minnesota, as Marty stated, but it’s located in Saugatuck, MI, close to where Kirk grew up. Keep up the great work.

A perfect lead in and daily update

Marty Smith and the guests really set the tone every year. I look forward to setting aside time for this podcast each Masters week morning.

Replace Marty smith

Yeah we get it, Marty has a souther accent. He's also a terrible interviewer, talks to much and provides us with absolutely nothing. Just cliches on cliches on cliches
