Ep 001: Good-Good The Beginning: On this first episode of the Good-Good Golf podcast there's not much golf chat but a bit of an explanation about some pretty big changes at the TalkinGolf network. The show will be hosted by Rod Morri, Adrian Logue and Derek Duncan (of Feed The Ball fame) and we're hoping it will prove as engaging, educational and entertaining as any golf show on the internet.

Ep 009: It's Hot At Christmas? That's Just Weird: If people like things about golf that are different to you, does that mean they are doing it wrong?

These are just some of the talking points on Episode Nine of The Good Good Golf Podcast. by The Good-Good Golf Podcast

Ep 007: Phil Blackmar's Spin On Distance: Self confessed golf tragic Phil Blackmar has spent his entire life around the game. He not only played at the highest level for more than a decade and a half, he won three times and all in an era that crossed over from Jack Nicklaus to Greg Norman to Tiger Woods. Now a commentator at Golf Channel Blackmar, like many of his contemporaries, worries about the direction the game has taken at the top level but believes he has a solution that is as intriguing as it is unique. He chats with Rod Morri on Episode 7 about all things golf (including an extremely entertaining Jack Nicklaus story!) by The Good-Good Golf Podcast

Ep 023: Anyone For a Top 100 Courses Debate?: If you want to start an argument in golf there are a couple of surefire topics that will do it and the ranking of the country's top 100 courses is one of them. On Episode 23 of Good Good, Golf Australia Magazine Editor Brendan James joins us in studio to discuss the where, what, when, how and why of his publication's biennial list.

Ep 014: Sandy Jamieson and One Club Golf: There may be no more intimidating game for a beginner than golf and perhaps no more intimidating place to try to do it than on a golf course.

Ep 025: All About Seve: In golf, the true greats are known by a single name. And just like Arnie, Jack, Tiger and Hogan, Seve takes his place as one of the best and most important ever to play the game. The Spaniard was charisma personified, both on and off the course, and taken all too early in 2011. If The Masters hadn't been postponed, this year would have marked the 40th anniversary of his first Green Jacket win and while there is no excuse needed it served as the ideal reason for an in depth chat about one of the game's most popular players. Join former caddie Billy Foster and fellow European Tour players Tony Johnstone and Mike Clayton as they reminisce about one of the most exciting players ever to pick up club. by The Good-Good Golf Podcast

Ep 008: Mike Clayton "Clubbing For The Duff": "The only point of the fifth hole at Royal Melbourne West," says Mike Clayton of the famed par-3, "is to join up the great fourth hole - the over the hill and down to the right par-5 - with the amazing 6th hole." It's Clayton at his best on Episode Eight of The Good Good Golf Podcast where Sydney v Melbourne golf, the Christina Kim rules fiasco and why Cypress Point's 16th hole needs an alternate par-4 tee are among the topics dissected. Clayton joins regulars Rod Morri, Adrian Logue and Derek Duncan for a fascinating and in depth discussion about golf and the fields upon which it is played. by The Good-Good Golf Podcast

Ep 028: Where Golf And Art Intersect With Lee Wybranski: Sick of Covid 19? Us too. So we're not mentioning it this week.

We recorded a fabulous chat with former Touring Professional Ewan Porter this week and covered everything from the demons within that drive golfers to distraction to innovative formats and the future of the professional game in Australia.
