We crack some Zombie Dust to recap two large golf events - Tiger vs Phil and the last chance at golf glory before Thanksgiving - and the wins and losses coming out of both.

We discuss the lead up to the match which was promising the week of - HBO 24/7, great personalities, new technology, shit talking, gambling galore on the course and for the viewers. The pregame was entertaining yet lawless. We express our (and seemingly the general public’s) opinion on The Match downtime between shots and the production value… Charlie is our subject matter expert on video production due to his past experience in video production. We feel there were some opportunities missed for great tv moments…. i.e. get Charles Barkley on the damn course!

Then, we recap the First Annual Glory’s Last Turkey Shoot. Due to weather/SNOW, the venue was moved from our favorite Ravisloe to Sydney R Marovitz - a Chicago Park District 9 holer directly on Lake Michigan (Augie geeks out on the weather phenomena that caused Marovitz to be one of the only courses in Chicagoland to be snowless). The biggest story line from Glory’s Last was the emergency 9 that happened after the competition and the possibility that it could be the last round of golf that Charlie ever plays due to a very tough loss.

Song adds - the theme is the (Charlie’s living room) studio Christmas decorations - Cee Lo Green “What Christmas Means To Mean” and from Ty Webb’s famed Christmas movie, Bing Crosby “Mele Kalikimaka”.

There’s an off-topic basketball outtake from pre-production following Carl Spackler.
