  • Ep.60 | The Creative Extraordinaire | Thomas Reiten, Stops By
    This is the most talented content creator we have spoken with. Hands Down. Thomas is incredibly creative and is to be commended for the work he has done in the last 18 months for Erik Anders Lang. Erik is perhaps the man leading the way in Golf content and community building and his videos have been instrumental in building this. It's Thomas's ability to stay creative and think with the end consumer in mind that has led to his success and poignant product. We discuss what it means to work in Golf, how he stays creative, what the future holds as well as the current state of Golf and the noticeable culture shift particularly in So.Cal. What struck me the most is when Thomas talked about 'breaking the 4th wall'. By this he means, how can he best utilise the footage to tell a story and put the consumer in the video. This truly says it all. Thomas creates experiences and paints Golf in new and interesting ways. And to do that, with a large and growing audience, is so impactful you cannot begin to describe. Such an interesting podcast and tonnes of value in there for any creatives or Golf nuts. Thank you, Thomas.

  • Ep.59 | Forelinx Leading The Way | CEO & Founder, Danny Wax, Stops By

    Where do I start?! We are honored, privileged and quite frankly, very excited to announce the show's new official lead sponsor. Forelinx is a complete golf platform that rewards you the more you watch and play golf. It is also the best way to book tee times and play fantasy golf. With Forelinx Points, you can book tee times, shop a member only marketplace and play fantasy golf. A Golf currency if you will. We spoke at length about the vision of Forelinx and their passion for making the game more relatable and accessible. We also discuss their new platform at length, where you are incentivised to watch and play Golf. Danny is a true visionary and is bringing so much value to the industry with both his outlook and product. Speaking with Danny enabled us to think customer first and how Golf is and can be consumed in a 2020 world. Enjoy, Nation! This one was special. We cannot wait to work with Forelinx and bring you listeners more value.

  • Ep.58 Just Jaks Just Give | Rams Hill X Just Jaks Golf | Darin Bunch stops By

    What is up everyone?! What an amazing episode we were able to bring to you this week. As you may have seen on Instagram, we have collaborated with Rams Hill Golf club to give away something special this Xmas. 2 rounds of foresomes Golf and an overnight stay at the house on the hill. Darin Bunch is the Managing Editor of Golf Trip Experts (GolfTripX.com), Marketing Director for Rams Hill Golf Club and part of the development team on the Pacific Gales project on the Oregon Coast (30 minutes sound of Bandon). He is also co-host of the “Talking GolfGetaways” podcast with his good friend, former actor and comedian Mitch Laurance, available on iTunes, audioBoom! and other places golf and travel fans consume podcasts. We go hard on travel this episode and just how beneficial it can be. Darin talks us through some of California's hidden gems and opens up about his best experiences whilst travelling the world playing Golf. It makes for a very interesting and educational listen for all of us Golf buts looking for the next adventure! Tune in and don't forget to enter the competition on IG!

  • Ep.57 | Idaleeeo Is The Name, Shaving Arseholes Is The Game!

    If you want to know how this podcast goes down, the 4 second intro clip will tell you all you need to know. As for the guest... Ever wondered what an alcohol fueled Cuban American who loves Golf is like? Look no further! All joking aside, Idaleo was a real pleasure. He is ruthlessly himself at all times and that is something we champion so much at Just Jaks Golf. We dive deep into his introduction into Golf, the inspiration behind his content and alter egos, his current Golf game and weapons of choice, answer some questions from followers and others within the community and discuss some of the more eventful drunken Golf course stories. The most alarming of which ends with guns! Dale epitomises what it means to pursue your passions. He's trying out stand up comedy currently and is continuing to deliver amazingly funny and unique content. We laugh hard so much on this episode and it may have something to do with the heavy arsehole chat, rape, alcohol, Church and other generally 'off the fairway' topics. If you haven't already, go check him out and if there's one thing to learn from him, it's to do what you enjoy and play Golf in any way that makes you happy. Enjoy, Nation. You know the sore by now - if you got any value, it would mean the world if you left a review or shared with a friend! Thank you.

  • Ep. 56 | Taser Golf Is a Real Thing! | Josh McSpadden, Founder Of Dirty Bird Golf, Stops By

    We loved this one so much! Josh founded Dirty Bird Golf with nothing but passion and a strong desire to bring a unique, fun and customer focused Golf brand into the world. Introduced to the game by his grandfather, Josh has continued to love the game and helps spread the good word. We play a fun game where followers and customers got a chance to get involved with a chance to win a Double Bogey Veteran cap, discuss some important aspects of Golf that have perhaps been lost, the importance of family, some casual football chat, the intricacies of Taser Golf and so much more. Congrats to Tanner Waddell for winning the cap! Josh was such a pleasure to speak with. Balanced, humble and passionate, he drops so many knowledge bombs and we can all learn a lot from him. Tune in for a podcast full of laughs, Golf chat and leanings. What struck me the most about Josh was his ability to champion the etiquette and respectful conduct that Golf brings whilst also ensuring fun is at the forefront of the experience. Put it this way, Josh is the guy who will help an old lady cross the road, buy your post round drinks, wear whatever he sees fit that day and taser you at any possible opportunity! What a guy... Remember, Nation, if you got any value at all, please subscribe, like, share blah blah blah :)

  • Don't Listen To This If You Value Your Intelligence | Episode 55

    Wow. We talked a lot of shit on this episode. A very poor, inch deep coverage of modern day topics and issues mixed in with unsubstantiated opinions and inappropriate jokes with a careful, 'salt-bae' like confirmation bias. Enjoy! Topics included Tesla, electric cars, veganism, some Golf I think, China's strange cultural abnormalities and a few other equally random topics. Oh, and if you got any value, please review!

  • Gregor The Golf Ball | Author of Children's Book 'The Adventures Of Gregor The Golf Ball' Euan McIntyre | Episode 54

    It's so refreshing to see a passionate Golfer try and chase his dream of having a huge impact on the participation of Golf in the junior ranks. It's no joke and no surprise that there's a serious issue with the lack of juniors taking up the game. We've talked at length previously about what we can do to reverse this trend and we discuss some new ideas on this episode centered around sparking imaginations and emotions. 'The Adventures Of Gregor The Golf Ball' is about bringing the game to life, setting off fireworks of creativity in a child's head to all the emotions they can connect with in these stories. The interactive nature of it allows the child to interact, connect and own their own narrative. It's this initial connection that Euan hopes will help inspire them to visit their local Golf facility. We also love the adventure focus! It's experience focused and any follower of ours knows we are all about the experience, travels and moments! You cannot knock his passion and concept so please go support him where you can. We would love to hear all you thoughts on this topic too! Enjoy, Nation, and if you have time, please leave a written review :)
