“I’m a female listener and this is my favorite podcast of any genre. I listen religiously three times each week. I love the inside jokes, random non-golf tangents, and genuine golf takes. Brendan and Andy are the best duo. They sometimes act like an old married couple and I love it. I’ve...”Read full review »

“I love this pod. Listen 3 times a week. Highly recommend. I don’t know what form to do this, but I just need to get it out there. Nothing makes me want to quit the pod more than listening to SGS when Andy and Brendan are physically together. My wife refers to this pod as “the guys with the...”Read full review »

“Andy and Brendan bring intelligence and humor to pro golf and golf architecture chatter. I love the fried egg but make no mistake- this is my favorite podcast out there.”

“I really enjoy the pod and it’s one of the best out there. They’re topical and having fun. But I just wish brendan didn’t throw cold water on everything and stop andy from going down some fun tangents. Brendan approaches the pod as if he’s hitting bullet points and trying to get done as fast as...”Read full review »

“I’ve given the other golf pods a try and this is my favorite. If Shotgun didn’t exist I would listen to NLU or Shane Bacon or the Golfer’s Journal. Those are fine podcasts but I don’t have time to be dedicated to more than one and Shotgun is the best for its irreverence and humor. I love the golf...”Read full review »

“It’s worth listening if only for the player nicknames and bespoke jargon. I giggle every time I hear Sepptic Tank, The Coetzee Zone, Tommy Tables among many others. My friends now wonder why I refer to people as Burly Boys or Thirst Buckets - it’s oddly infectious and provides amusing context...”Read full review »

“Took me time getting used to Andy. When I started listening, I had seen a picture of Brendan and thought it was Andy. Something about Andy’s voice coming out of Brendan’s body was just odd and I couldn’t get into it. Saw Andy on Tourist Sauce and I got it. Now I listen every episode and can’t...”Read full review »

“Perfect for the die hard golf fan. Currently on my 3rd listen of the episode about the LIV/PGA tour senate hearing. Cackling non stop. Andy and Brendan are hilarious together!”
“Dear Andy and Brendan ,
Not too much happens in this sleepy little fishing village on the Algarve in Portugal. With a population of 300 odd people ( most north of 80 ) there is not much that happens here to set the heart racing . In fact the last time anything newsworthy happened was about 8...”Read full review »

“They are funny, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and at times, silly. This is my favorite pod that I listen to. As soon as they release an episode, I listen to it.”

“I’ve been a big fan of the No Laying Up guys, but recently have been very much enjoying this pod as well and I’d say it is a a great complement to their podcast feed. Insightful takes and good recaps, and I love the way Andy says “Brendan!” at the beginning of each episode haha. Good stuff fellas.”

“When you spend your whole podcast trying to bash LIV and pump the PGA. We know where you stand.
If you don’t like LIV, then don’t watch it. I for one enjoy both!
Pass on this podcast it isn’t really a golf podcast. It’s just two guys that set around talking trash about everyone.”

“The audio can be suspect at times. There are nicknames of obscure golfers that often take a moment to recall. There’s talk of birdies and bogeys, but also important information like whether the upcoming PGA tour course is adjacent to a zoo. Also the best gambling tips.
Seriously though, Andy...”Read full review »
