The Filthy Lipout
Former PGA and European Tour pro and current Sky Sports commentator John E Morgan and broadcaster Kit Alexander host this insightful and entertaining weekly podcast. They’ve attracted a huge variety of guests, including Nick Dougherty, Thomas Bjorn, Robert MacIntyre, Billy Foster, Peter Finch and global superstar Niall Horan. It features in-depth interviews with their subjects, as well as discussions about the latest news. John and Kit’s rapport with their guests shines through and always produces a number of highly entertaining moments.
No Laying Up
This is arguably the biggest golf podcast coming out of America.
They do a good job of treading the line between the often overly jokey and immature ‘new media’ and offering interesting and informative content that shows their understanding of, and enthusiasm for, the game. Each episode covers a pretty specific subject or interview, but they release at least two a week – so plenty to get your teeth into.
The podcast has excellent access to many top-level guests and they’ve tackled some big issues with Kamaiu Johnson and Lisa Cornwell.
The Fried Egg Golf Podcast
Another American podcast, but with a strong focus on courses and architecture. Renowned course designer Tom Doak makes regular appearances and there is a ‘Superintendent Series’ that gets into the nitty gritty of agronomy, maintenance and the people who work in that area. It’s a must-listen for connoisseurs of all things courses, but also if your interest is more casual.
It’s the type of subject matter that draws you in. They also speak to tour pros, but usually with an eye on architecture.
