    From Detroit Bargain Bourbon to Bud Cauley's Comeback:, a daughter’s passion for sports.

    Hosts trade stories from a chaotic road trip — bargain Buffalo Trace finds, a soggy Oakland Hills visit, and a deep dive into Ben Hogan lore and Bud Cauley’s comeback. They riff on Shinnecock, sports betting, Carolina teams, and announce a tongue-in-cheek local “butt” contest. Guests include the host’s daughter discussing ECU baseball upgrades and fan culture, plus comic side notes about raccoons, a road-killed rabbit, and classic broadcaster anecdotes. The episode blends golf history, family banter, and light-hearted Southern hospitality.

    Mid-Pines Mischief: Golf, Bourbon, and the Redneck Rota

    Two friends recount a day in Pinehurst — lunch at the Track, a tour of renovated clubs, and a round at beloved Mid Pines — mixing golf stories, memories, and golf-writing anecdotes about a Golfer’s Journal piece on "Oscar W. Butosh and the Redneck Rota." Along the way they swap humorous tales about reading audiobooks, backyard rainstorms, bourbon and local food finds, debate new weight-loss drugs, and riff on baseball, college tournaments, and historic taverns. It’s a conversational, down-home episode about golf, friendship, and regional culture.
