The lads once again give their unfiltered view on the events in the world of sport. From Jay Leno to Jaguar, Tyson to Tottenham. Donner McGregor and darts. Stay humble.

On the show this week we welcome Mike McCarley, the CEO and Founder of TGL, the new indoor golf league that launches on ESPN in January 2025 - a new golf innovation backed by the might of Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods.  With the game of golf looking to both stabilise after a tumultuous few years and a sport looking for new audiences, is this the answer golf has been waiting for?Brought to you by Web3 Sports Ventures.

The lads today talk about sports documentaries, with passion. From Ali in Zaire to the World Series. “You can’t write it, you can’t touch, you can only feel it”. And a small mention of the US election

On The Captain’s Table this month, we are joined by Wendy Becker, the Chair of Logitech and non-executive director of GSK. One of the most versatile global business leaders of the past 30 years. She shares with us her passion for leadership, mentoring across a multitude of business sectors and her personal love of cooking. Brought to you by Chair Mentors International.

The lads get emotional about two of the most traditional of sports; cricket and baseball. One a fantastic goal; the other absolutely not. Get the hankies. And all the rest of the usual chat and hilarity. One of the best ever GOGs.
