Brendan has been off the golf grid while traveling back from England, and he brings on The Boys to share Porath family London tales and a few stray Open Championship thoughts. They cover the news of the day, substantial reporting out of LIV Golf U.K. about LIV's future and the potential cancellation of LIV's season-ending finale. Also covered in this wide-ranging, rambling episode: why Brendan will not see The Odyssey, Rory Sabbatini's scripting for the Senior Open Championship, Lane Kiffin's yoga habits, an update to the Jackson Suber Tracker wars, and rolling back calling every golf course under the sun a "second-shot golf course."
