Greetings from Sleepy Salema in Portugal
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 years ago when 2 local fishermen had a fight over tangled fishing lines . ( one was taken to the local hospital. Folks still talk about it ) So you can imagine the thrill when I wake from my light sleep in the early predawn hours to a simple vibration on my phone and I see that epic Blue and Yellow logo flash on the screen…….The latest Shotgun Start pod . Time to leave the bed silently not to disturb the wife , and start a coffee and the podcast . With the ocean waves in the background, what a pleasure to laugh in the early hours and start the day with a smile . You guys give me great pleasure as I laugh my way through your podcast . The self deprecating humor and not taking yourselves too seriously are great attributes that help this old retired South African laugh a little . Your golf podcast is first amongst equals ( I have listened to all of them ) and I wanted to merely take a few moments to appreciate and thank you both for your wonderful knowledge of golf coupled with a good giggle that you provide. I am also grateful that the golfing gods have provided all of us with a steady stream of phenomenal content since the advent of the LIV tour and the great saga of the PGA v LIV showdowns. Your podcast describing the Brooks Koepke workout session for a clearly underperforming “ Smash “ team had my son and I in fits of laughter . Anyway , like most golf fans and players I come across here , all we want is too watch the worlds best men and woman compete against each other as often as possible. Nothing else . Keep up the great work and thanks again for all the laughs. Doug Jackson , Algarve, Portugal.

Since The Shotgun Start pod commenced in September it has become a staple. The combination of Andy’s encyclopaedic golf knowledge (golf course architecture and golf outside the PGA Tour) and interesting takes along with Brendan’s PGA Tour insider dirt and dry wit are something I always look...Read full review »

After listening to Andy and Brendan talk gold I was able to do 42 push-ups. Normally I could only do 37 push-ups. And I have great form, not like my friend Greg, he had terrible form. Greg’s also gluten intolerant. I’m not gluten intolerant.
