In the last episode before Christmas, Andrew, Iain and Eddie convene like the ghosts of past, present and yet to come to mull over Eddie's final tournament for the year, in Mauritius.

43rd place doesn't sound exciting and, let's be honest, it isn't. But there is still plenty to be positive about for our resident Tour pro with putting and short game improving. Apart from the trio discussing that, there is also talk about the respective achievements of Jayden Schaper in making it back to back titles and Ryan Gerard in qualifying for The Masters. Other stuff is also talked about in the pod, but I can't remember exactly what at the moment. Merry Christmas.

Three become four this week as Laurie Canter joins Andrew, Eddie and Iain to have a detailed chat about his impending move back to LIV.

How do we find consistency in golf? That is the question vexing Eddie at the moment after his trip to Australia where he led during the Australian Open, yet still failed to make the weekend. Remarkably, driving is the only part of his game which is offering permanent satisfaction and he has moved on to Dubai to find some answers. Or just lie in the sun.

The trio also wonder if, or how, the Australian Open could become a major as well as interpreting dreams, talking about Norwegian supermarkets and deciding who are the anti-Spaniards.

This week Eddie breaks down a solid but unspectacular performance at the Australian PGA as he gets his DP World Tour season underway - giving us the often quite temperamental details of what actually went on and his various Eddie-esque methods of dealing with them.

Andrew and Iain talk about Fuzzy Zoeller, who died this week, outlining his engaging personality, huge golfing ability and the significant mistake off the course which stayed with him. The news of of Laurie Canter officially joining LIV with the Majesticks broke too late for Eddie to discuss it, but Andrew and Iain do, while Eddie looks ahead to the Australian Open at Melbourne from the comfort one of the top-three hotels he has ever stayed in.

Possibly a new record for episode duration, which we know is nothing really to be proud of, but our excuse is that we have author, golf lover and all-round overachiever Richard Osman joining us to discuss television, writing, podcasting and most importantly golf. Eddie is down under preparing for the Australian PGA championship and while he looks ahead to that, with his over-lofted putter, he also reflects on the likely departure of friend Laurie Canter to LIV and we try to answer the question: Who is the world number 47?

He only went and did it... A special episode to mark a special achievement by a special man. Eddie regains his DP World Tour card by finishing with four straight birdies at the final stage of qualifying school in Spain. He joins Iain and Andrew to discuss his performance and where it leaves him now. Emotions ran high in Spain and everybody in the TCF family can celebrate for now. But as he says, it's only a start. Bravo Eddie.

An episode which comes in the midst of the final of Q-School, yet Eddie is happy to have a glass of wine and chat about his current position going into the final two rounds. There is of course plenty to discuss on other matters as well, including Aaron Rai's win in Abu Dhabi and who is in and out of various things, such as PGA Tour cards and bonus pools. There is also a short debate about whether Rory McIlroy is more famous than Andy Murray as well as Andrew droning on about overseas French and Danish territories.

Q-School is in session and Eddie has safely negotiated stage 2. Unfortunately the same can't be said for some expensive possessions as he admits that the frustration of hitting the ball as well as he ever has was not matched by his putting.

And yet... he gets to stay on in Barcelona to prepare for stage 3, while Iain has arrived in Dubai ahead of the two big end of season events on the DP World Tour. There is further chat about James Morrison finding his way back to the main tour, Tom McKibbin earning his way to the Masters and The Open as well as a mention of the Chinese Tiger Woods, changes to the Old Course and a sponsor's invitation for perhaps the best connected 18 year old in the game.

Warning: this podcast is stuffed full of fluff.

A rare episode that falls below the one-hour mark, but there are valid reasons:

1) It's not the busiest time in golf, 2) Andrew is at death's door so hasn't got quite as much of his non-golf nonsense to waffle on about, 3) Eddie professes to being in the doldrums so isn't really feeling it as he prepares for the second stage of Q-School and 4) Iain is in Venice and has a lot of explaining to do to his sister-in-law.

All that being said, we hope you still enjoy it and come back soon.
