LIV Laff Golf Podcast desertduffer, JScore, and OTP Lefty

It's The Night Before the Open Championship, and the LLG gang is ready to Get Back to it. It's been a busy couple of weeks in pro golf, and The Things We Said Today include a discussion of the return of Jay Monahan to his job as the nominal head of the PGA Tour. But the Nowhere Man has yet to be seen in Merseyside this week.

Duffer, OTP Lefty, and JScore touch on the performance of The Fools on the (Capitol) Hill sent in Jay's place, Jimmy Dunne and and Ron Price. Dick Blumenthal's main line of inquiry: Tell Me Why the deal had to be with the Saudis. The obvious answer, of course, is Money (That's What They Want). Jimmy and Ron had little to say about the terms of the deal before the deal, other than We Can Work it Out later. The DOJ will certainly have its say about What Goes On, as will the Taxman when it comes to dealing with the 501(c)(6) issues.

As for the Open, as usual, everybody's talking about Little Lord McIlroy, who's fresh off his win at the Scottish Open. But I've Got a Feeling you know what the gang thinks of Rory's chances of winning. Baby You're a Rich Man, but you won't be a winner at Hoylake, Not a Second Time. He and his many media fanboys will just have to Wait until next year, just like they've been doing for 8+ years now.

The End. 

We're back, with tolerable audio to talk about the PGA Tour Papers Twitter document dump. Duffer explains how he came upon the documents, his plan to test the media, how Sports Illustrated got them, Tiger's response, and more. Then the gang gets into the substance of the documents, and what they may mean for the future of the tours and the proposed merger. Finally, OTP Lefty leads a recap session of an exciting weekend of golf on both major men's tours.

On the eve of the U.S. Open, the gang is back to talk about combining commercial interests on a very special episode of LLG. 

Duffer's audio once again sounds like he's stuck in the well where we presume Commissioner Monahan is hiding out during the first major championship since his triumphant announcement of the Venice Pact. Listen at your own risk.

It's the best (or second best?) golf week of the year, so we recorded an episode where we talk about The Masters. We also check in on JScore's emotional well-being as the endless Fargo winter continues. Plus, OTP Lefty goes on more golf trips, and DD provides a brief litigation update.

Also, this episode has been uploaded in its original format. We want to get out in front of this: apologies to Peter Dinklage, Paul McGinley, and anyone else that DD may have offended with his crass and offensive language in reference to little people. He promises to learn from this and to do better going forward.

After a very brief hiatus, LLG  is back in the podcast saddle. Duffer sounds like he's yelling into a tin can as the gang talks about the weather, Seth Raynor, tampongate, and LIV Golf's kickoff in Mexico.

It's been seven hours and 15 days. Since we took the pod away. But like Pat Perez, we're back, baby. In the latest episode, OTP Lefty and desertduffer report on their trip to South Florida for the LIV Team Final in Miami, where Nothing Compared 2 the 4 Aces. The LLG crew give their thoughts on the most valuable and most disappointing players in the LIV inaugural campaign, and talk about what might be coming in 2023. Plus JScore recaps his trip to Bandon Dunes.
