Group Golf Therapy

Aaron Chewning has been chewning out comedy content since the days of Internet yore (Vine). But his recent venture, St. André — an ode to Atlanta co-inhabitant, André 3000 — has its phasers set to stun the golf world. The Shrinks set aside the first 20 minutes of this session to shower Aaron with compliments for his and his team's work on St. André: it's some of the only golf content the Shrinks happily share with each other in the panoptic Shrinks Chat. Go watch for yourselves, but St. André's work is funny, it's socially responsible, it says all the right things. Moreover, Aaron is a delight, who is bound for even greater acclaim within the Golf-Creative-Landscape. 

In this session: Waffle House, "beverage-cart-girl" guys, Shania Twain.

Casey Bannon is a golf storyteller: he holds down the editorial wing at The Golfer's Journal, and really wants to run a piece about Robert Garrigus' weed farm. Casey also wears two pairs of socks at once, and is developing queues that help him stay present in an increasingly noisy world. The Shrinks brought Casey on the couch to discuss the mystique of good golf events, The Plateau Effect, and as the session title would suggest, Casey's SWEET FEET.

In this session: GoT dream foursomes, Big Tootsie, is golf food garbage?

Things got bad for Jordan Thomas. In 2005, a 16 year-old Jordan lost both of his legs in a tragic boating accident. He describes that, beyond the road to physical recovery, his mental and emotional health would take much longer to be set right. But Jordan mustered the courage to ask for help — friends and family rallied around, and helped inspire what Jordan has become: a giver, and a support engine for young people around the world who similarly require prostheses. In addition to running the Jordan Thomas Foundation, Jordan is an avid golfer: he competed in the first-ever USGA Adaptive Open at Pinehurst this year, and he's advocating for making golf spaces more accessible to people with disabilities. More than anything, Jordan is an insatiable hype-man with a rich, booming spirit. 

In this session: the soul of golf, when the cavalry comes, LUNCH PAIL.

Sadena Parks is undeniably, unabashedly herself. It's something she challenged herself with during her professional golf hiatus: to walk into every room unafraid to be herself. Now she's back in competition mode — on June 2, she won THE JOHN SHIPPEN National Golf Invitational — and is making another run toward the LPGA. But this time around, her inner child is calling some of the shots, cartwheels and NERF guns very much included. 

In this session: coconut water that will rock your world, Drew gets invited to the Parks family barbecue, melons.

Lawrence Schlossman is one half of the fashion empire, Throwing Fits. Cole Owens-Young needs no introduction; he runs Metalwood Studio, and his name has been dropped on nearly every MF GGT podcast to date. We brought these two sartorial wündermen onto the couch to unpack the ramp-up of golfcore: the catalysts and spark plugs responsible for golf fashion's reinvention. 

In this session: where "jawns" comes from, why skate and golf collide, Cole is a frog boy.

Julia Rae's first film role is a golf movie. Wow. She's one of the leads in the upcoming, festival award winning movie, "Playing Through", which documents the life of Ann Gregory, the first Black woman to compete in a USGA championship. Julia lives in LA, but is deeply connected to her Philly roots, and will never give up Mom's cooking. Julia took golf lessons as a kid, but dove head first into perfecting her swing for the role. 

In this session: celebrating the small victories, Sidney Poitier, gum is canceled?

Connor is tired, after living in 11 NYC apartments in 2022. Drew can only sleep on super soft mattresses. Bradford gives new dog, Honey, the Vibe Test. All this and more on the Group Golf Therapy Patreon page.

In this session: the high-wire act of moving in NYC, where to store your golf clubs, hardly any golf.

Plenty of swing changes and life changes have unfolded for Tom Coyne since he wrote A Course Called Ireland in 2009: he had kids, quit drinking, wrote two follow-up books detailing his journey-in-entirety of golf and relationships in Scotland and America along the way. A dream job — to walk from one bucket-list course to another, and getting to write about it — but it's work. Raising a family, and treating a cancer diagnosis this year have prompted Tom to spend more time around, yet the travel invariably stacks up. Tom opens up about his writing process, his path through sobriety, and why Scotland has the best golf in the world.

In this session: how America bred exclusive golf, Clubman Aftershave, an actual ghost story.
