Brendan! and PJ run amok on this episode while Andy's out on a boat somewhere. They have a lengthy food discussion to kick things off with the "Burger Dog" at The Olympic Club has taken center stage at the U.S. Am. There is debate about the merits of Chicago cuisine, bagels from just anywhere, and Phil Mickelson's Portillo's experiences in Bolingbrook last week. Tommy Fleetwood's tour of the 30 MLB stadiums has also continued after he was spotted at Camden Yards on Tuesday evening. He's in town for the BMW Championship at Caves Valley in Baltimore, best known as the birthplace of "Patty Ice" in 2021. Brendan and PJ take a small look back at that event, with more to come on Friday thanks to a special guest. Picks are made for the second round of the playoffs and PJ argues that this driver-wedge fest may be a proper way to crown a champion of the PGA Tour season. They run through the rest of the Schedule of the Week before dropping in some news about Versant and NBC striking a rights deal for the USGA Championships. If you still have cable, you're in good company here! Brendan then calls on Golf Channel's Brentley Romine for some onsite coverage of the aforementioned U.S. Am, burger glizzies and all.
