LIV Laff Golf Podcast

With no new legal developments since the last episode, the "LIV Bots" talk golf this week. desertduffer calls in from a potato somewhere in the Boston area looking for the Northern Trust Open, and the gang discusses Willy Z's win in Memphis, the dastardly conspiracy against Cameron Smith, the OWGR, and Akshay Bhatia's hair.
We also name new Haters and Losers of the Week, JScore shouts out the golf illuminati, and OTP Lefty gives us the latest odds on the next players to jump to the LIV Tour.

After a marathon unbillable session watching the TRO proceedings via Zoom in Mickelson v. PGA Tour, Inc., desertduffer shares the bad news about the LIV players' failed efforts to crash the FedEx Cup playoffs in Memphis. The LLG crew discusses what's next for Gooch and the gang, and whether there's any escape route from Judge Labson Freeman's courtroom.
We also talk Murifield, OTP Lefty's charity golf scramble, and JScore's progeny's weak constitution. Plus, bonus Big Sur content!

On the heels of being stripped of the Ryder Cup captaincy, Henrik Stenson wins the LIV Bedminster Invitational by two strokes over a resurgent Matt Wolff and Dustin Johnson. The LIV Laff Golf crew dissects Henrik's win, and debates whether the 4 Aces juggernaut can be stopped. desertduffer compares the Torque GC with the mid-80s St. Louis Cardinals baseball team. Is Julie Crenshaw the current day Joaquin Andujar?
The gang also speculates about the potential LIV future of back-to-back PGA Tour winner Tony Finau, OTP Lefty waxes poetic about Muirfield, and we learn how Captain Lou Albano relates to the Ryder Cup.

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.

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.
