With Andy and producer PJ on the road, Brendan is left to man the controls. He brings on Kevin Van Valkenburg from the media center at Te Arai to recap an exciting edition of the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship won by Fifa Laopakdee and discuss the trajectory of one of golf's great amateur events. Joseph LaMagna also joins to break down the action from VidantaWorld where Andrew Novak shredded the field during a busy NFL Sunday. Then, Brendan and Joseph get to some provocative Michael Block quotes, which prompts a conversation about whether or not the Champions Tour has groupies.
