"That mug likes to shoot basketballs, throw Frisbees, and hit baseballs."

Before he was a touring legend with a signature "catch-the-glasses" follow-through, Matt Orum was just a kid in a backyard in Mobile, Alabama. He was a "sandlot kid," measuring his life by the 150 Braves games he watched a year and the tape-marked strike zone on his neighbor’s fence.

In this episode, we sit down with one of disc golf’s most authentic icons.

From the "funk" of 2020 to the "spark" of a YouTube video that brought him back to the tour, Matt opens up about:

The Identity Flip: Why the man with the deepest Alabama accent in the sport identifies as a "city boy" who’s scared of the country.

The 50% Rule: His surprisingly humble goal of achieving just half of what Cale Leiviska has accomplished.

The "Peanut Head" Theory: The real reason his sunglasses fly off during every drive (and why he refuses to wear a strap).

The Future: Why 38 is the new 28, and the "Free Masters Year" he’s eyeing for his legacy.

This isn’t a breakdown of stats or tournament finishes. This is a story about a man who has been "grinding" since 2001 and finally learned how to trust himself to just be himself.

"We know the world is a different place than it used to be... but I’m still just that kid from the backyard."
