An Episode FORE you

Send us Fan Mail Golf has a funny way of showing up in our lives even when we don’t play and we finally followed that thread. But first, we spiral a little: Sober October, social drinking in your 40s, and the most bananas throwback we’ve seen in a while, a real 1972 Vogue diet built on hard boiled eggs, black coffee, and multiple glasses of Chablis before dinner. It’s equal parts hilarious and horrifying, and it opens up a bigger point about habits that are sustainable versus “rules” that make you miserable. Food stays in the spotlight in a better way too, from the internet’s obsession with the Fat Bear Champ to a genuinely cozy comfort food moment: the Jackie Kennedy casserole. If you love easy casseroles, nostalgic recipes, and that kugel adjacent vibe of egg noodles, sour cream, cottage cheese, and chives, you’re going to want to try it. We also talk real life logistics, like home renovations, sleep disruptions, and why a simple overnight trip for an Irish dance competition can feel like a luxury retreat. Then we get into golf for non golfers: why a round takes four to four and a half hours, why the startup costs feel steep, what’s actually fun about mini golf and places like Puttshack, plus golf history from 15th century Scotland to the origin of the word “golf.” We also share golf facts you can drop at a party, like hole in one odds and how expensive a round can get in Las Vegas. We wrap with highs and lows that include sourdough and champagne, a missed birthday, a truly wild tire story, and a proud family diabetes milestone. If you laughed, learned something, or just felt seen, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find us. What part hit you most, the golf facts or the breakfast wine diet?
