    Chasing Darkness: E372 After Show

    A single joke about buying a new putter quickly turns into the kind of golf conversation that spirals in the best way: the gear we regret selling, the clubs we can’t stop thinking about, and the tiny build details that only matter because we care way too much. We get into classic putter obsession, from Teryllium-era love to the practical question that hits every golfer eventually: do you stick with a blade because you like it, or switch to a mallet because the numbers say you should?Then the plot twist: a chance connection with Dormie Network ties lights up a full-on road trip planning session. Arbor Links gets thrown on the table, and suddenly we’re mapping dates, debating drive times, and daydreaming about stacking rounds at Landman, Sand Hills, Wild Horse, Ballyneal, and even GreyBull if the logistics line up. It’s equal parts fantasy itinerary and real planning, including the part nobody posts about: stays, refundable tee times, and how quickly one detour can eat half a day.We also go off the fairway into modern golf life: using AI to generate promo art and thumbnails, why some AI images are creepy accurate, and how reselling culture on Whatnot feels different now. The conversation gets honest about overpriced hype, seller drama, and why it matters to not take advantage of people. We close with a story that’ll make you double-check your locks, stolen clubs and launch monitors are a real thing, and it changes how you travel with gear.If you enjoyed the hang, subscribe, share the episode with a golf buddy, and leave us a review so more people can find the show.

    Chasing Darkness: Episode 370 Aftershow

    Seinfeld quotes are supposed to be a safe warm-up. Somehow ours turns into a full-on debate about what counts as fast food, which drive-thru deserves your money, and why certain fries are either elite or straight-up trash. We get way too specific about In-N-Out, Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, Del Taco, Raising Cane’s, and especially Jack in the Box, including the one argument that keeps coming back: speed matters, but regret matters more.The real turn comes when the food talk stops being just rankings and starts becoming memory. We go deep on sandwich shops, bread ratios, lettuce wrap workarounds, and the places you miss even if they’re long gone. Then we hit the weird magic of scent and taste, how one random smell can snap you back into childhood, family routines, or a single perfect bite from years ago. If you’re into nostalgia, comfort food, and the psychology of cravings, there’s more going on here than jokes.Because we can’t stay on one track, we also jump into golf life: gear chatter, planning tee times, dreaming up courses, and showing off flags and collectibles that carry real stories. Add a quick sports rant about free throws, a few autograph flexes, and a final stretch where we thank the community, vent about music rights, and uncover a childhood “photo with Mike Tyson” story that is either legendary or deeply questionable.If you like funny podcast banter with golf, fast food takes, Las Vegas local references, and real friendship chaos, hit subscribe, share this with a friend who has strong drive-thru opinions, and leave us a review. What fast food spot are you defending to the end?

    Chasing Darkness: Episode 368 Aftershow

    What does it really take to turn a group chat into a golf trip you’ll remember? We crack open the premium aftershow and let you ride shotgun as we chase limited-edition Garson grips, sketch a custom CDP design, and wrestle flight schedules into a tee sheet that actually works. Along the way, a TGL hole-in-one steals a headline, the Paiute Wolf Course earns praise, and a stack of Midwestern targets—Landmand, Quarry Oaks, Whispering Creek, maybe even the elusive Mini Haha and Mapleton—pulls us deeper into the map.We talk real numbers and real tradeoffs: Allegiant’s nonstop to Sioux Falls vs Southwest into Omaha, arrival windows that protect a twilight 18, and why a minivan beats a cramped trunk when friendships and travel bags are on the line. The gear side gets granular too. Garson’s “major” grip collection looks sharp, the “Stadium” and “Jumpsuit” drop hints, and our own CDP grip mock is set to carry bold color and clean typography down the shaft. Pricing, minimum orders, and fulfillment aren’t side notes—they’re the difference between a cool idea and a community win you can roll on every green.This one feels like a blueprint for golf-obsessed planners: weigh time against cost, pick routes that keep energy high, and stack courses that balance hype with access. We share app tips for logging reviews and photos, celebrate great maintenance and design touches, and admit that the best stories often happen before the first swing. If you’ve ever tried to herd flights, fairways, and family calendars into the same week, you’ll hear yourself in these choices.Hit play, then tell us where you’d route the trip next. Subscribe, share the show with your golf crew, and drop a review with your best flight-and-fairway hack—we’ll read our favorites on the pod.
