Brendan! joins The Boys for this Masters cleanup episode before jetting over to meet Andy in Scotland. Joseph immediately begins with some comments regarding his drive back to Atlanta alongside Brendan that featured 90s hip-hop and a spilled coffee in the precious GLS. From there, the trio wonder if Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler should just be the prohibitive Masters favorites for the next three or four years given their 1-2 finish this week without their "A games." There's also some debate about whether Rory has surpassed Phil Mickelson in the all-time rankings of golf. PJ and Joseph watched the final round back on TV and shared some thoughts on Russell Henley, Collin Morikawa, and Xander Schauffele that they didn't pick up on the ground on Sunday. The two also weigh in on the discourse surrounding the CBS broadcast, which was amplified even more by Kevin Kisner's comments making the rounds on X early Tuesday morning. Brendan then shifts the attention to the Schedule for the Week, beginning with a Signature Event at the RBC Heritage. Brendan openly states that there shouldn't be golf this week and sees the Heritage as a legacy event that will surely be impacted by the PGA Tour's ever-changing schedule and stance on wanting a piece of the monetary pie from the majors. He shares whispers from under the big tree at Augusta about these conversations and how big Tour sponsors may allocate their funds moving forward. With Andy out, PJ steps in and provides 5 Guys to Monitor This Week in Hilton Head, including one with an "unfair advantage" much like Rory allegedly had at ANGC. Joseph, PJ, and Brendan all make One-and-Done picks as Golf's Premier Gambling Podcast looks to stay hot after hitting a winner at the Masters. The "Event of the Year" is next on the schedule rundown with the Senior PGA Championship's move to April. PJ shares some important tee times and notable storylines for this year's event at The Concession, featuring the big debut of Rory (Sabbatini)! LIV Mexico City and the JM Eagle LA Championship are also previewed before moving on to the biggest news of the week so far: the installation of a pool on the 18th hole at Memorial Park. Brendan can't believe that the Chevron Championship is making its golf tournament all about a jump into some water and a friend of Joseph's was kind enough to provide photos of this small four-foot-deep pool next to the 18th green!

Andy and Brendan (joined by KVV, Joseph, and PJ) are bouncing after another incredible Masters finish that had Rory McIlroy winning another green jacket. They debrief on a full day chasing a manic leaderboard with Rory, Cameron Young, Justin Rose, Scottie Scheffler, and more throwing their hat in the ring to win on a firm Augusta National setup. They discuss Rory’s legacy now with six majors, his claim to the best European golfer of all time, and what comes next on the resume building. They also discuss all the challengers and dispense with the preposterous notion that Augusta went soft with the setup. LIV Golf’s week is given a grade, with some hollering about Sergio Garcia’s conduct and the warning he received from a green jacket. They discuss the narrative that the Masters lost some of its identity with the merch haul movement and some of the hijinks around the Par 3 contest. Lastly, they finish with some big picture thoughts on the majors the rest of the year and a note of thanks for listening.

Andy and Brendan load in for an all-time round of Contender or Pretender as we head to the final round of the 2026 Masters. They discuss Rory McIlroy losing his six-shot lead with haste, as a host of talented chasers came and went at him on the leaderboard on Saturday, none more so than Cameron Young, much to PJ Clark’s delight. They run through the entire board, including sheriff of the fair police Scottie Scheffler, and debate who is game for Sunday. Should we be ringing alarm bells on Rory after the way he hit it in the third round? There is also some lengthy and emotional discussion about the setup of the golf course and the critique that Augusta National went too soft. They rip through some Storylines No One is Talking About for one final night before closing it out with an amusing story from under the tree and their picks to win it all on Sunday.

Andy and Brendan are buzzing after a Friday sprint to the finish from Rory McIlroy, who set history with the largest 36-hole lead by making birdies in six of his last seven holes. They discuss the finish, how he’s elevated his game and brain at Augusta, a place that seems ready to give him it all now, and how far back is too far back with this margin. They run through the list of very game chasers and who might pose a problem should he stumble. Also discussed is the notion of Augusta going “soft” with the setup with greens that were less firm than the opening round on Thursday. Is the 13th hole back? They analyze a full day of momentous decisions and some water balls, including Scottie Scheffler, who seems stuck in neutral. They have a dose of shame to give out for the missed cut crew, including Bryson DeChambeau, who went out in a blaze of ignominy with a triple bogey 18th hole to tumble below the cut line. The notion of LIV preparing Bryson, Rahm, and others for major championship golf is also put to the test, with some quotes from the past coming back to haunt. They close it with some rapid awards from the day and several Storylines No One Is Talking About as this Masters goes to the weekend.

Andy and Brendan are live in Augusta to recap a full day on the ground at the first round of the Masters. It’s early, but the course is in exquisite condition and primed for a stupendous final 54 holes. They ponder if the course conditions, which are firm with no real moisture on the horizon, could prompt some player complaints or a become a situation worth #monitoring over the next three days. Then they get to the leaders at the top of the board, like the defending champ Rory McIlroy and how the very plausible title defense somehow flew under the radar. They discuss Sam Burns’s impressive first round, Scottie hanging tough in late conditions, and how the P in Pat Reed stands for “PROBLEM.” Grumpy Bob MacIntyre is also dispensed with following a tough first day, and the two LIV pillars of Bryson and Rahm are put in the crosshairs. They hand out some awards, like the Good Guy Gerry award, Best and Worst shots, and more from day 1. They close by emptying the notebook with some amusing odds and ends and then go over Storylines that No One is Talking About.

After two days taking in the sights, sounds, and scuttlebutt of Augusta National, Andy and Brendan have returned to preview the 2026 Masters. They begin with an overview of the course setup and delightful weather forecast for this week before diving into the top contenders. Things kick off with Rory McIlroy, who enters the week as the defending champion for the first time ever. Rory is described as "freed" and "relaxed" this week, leading to one member of the crew picking him to win back-to-back green jackets. Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm, and Bryson DeChambeau are also discussed at length before Andy, Brendan, and PJ bat around who the fifth biggest story of the week is. Submissions for this spot include Xander Schauffele, Ludvig Åberg, and Cameron Young (not from PJ!), but it may end up being Jordan Spieth anyway. A Tee Times draft breaks out which leads into a time-honored tradition, Storylines Nobody Is Talking About. After the notebooks get emptied, Kevin Van Valkenburg stops by with a "KVV 3" from Tuesday's happenings on the ground. Golf's Premier Gambling Podcast makes their picks to win before sending this episode off and getting the 90th Masters Tournament underway.

Andy and Brendan! have made it to Augusta and are ready to hit the ground running for the first major of 2026. After a long travel day, there's still plenty of excitement for this year's Masters as each shares what they're looking forward to the most this week. Brendan suggests that a certain Guy may be the only player with enough juice to really energize the crowd late on Sunday, while Andy is just waiting to hear Joseph LaMagna's first impressions of Augusta National. Before all of that, they recap the Valero Texas Open, where J.J. Spaun officially became the King of Texas with his second win at the event. Spaun's comeback win in rough weather marks his first since last year's U.S. Open, with Brendan suggesting he may be "The Rain King." Andy runs down the list of "Worst Major Winners This Decade (or Century)" and applauds Spaun for further removing himself from this list. He then launches into a crusade against Bob MacIntyre's caddie for using an iPhone to find the wind direction on the 72nd hole with a chance to make a playoff or even win the tournament. Asterisk Talley had a historic collapse at Augusta National on Saturday during the final round of the ANWA, clearing the way for Maria Jose Marin to win perhaps the biggest event in women's golf. More results follow, with Andy and Brendan discussing a runaway with for Lauren Coughlin at Shadow Creek and an opera singer's big week on the Korn Ferry Tour. After wrapping up with yet another Masters Fact of the Day, the two announce that they will be LIVE on the Fried Egg Golf YouTube channel for the 2026 Masters preview episode at 3:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday, April 7th.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of perhaps the greatest Masters ever, Andy, Brendan!, and Kevin Van Valkenburg present a special Flashback Friday episode covering Sunday at the 1986 Masters. After some opening chatter about Illinois basketball and Rory Sabbatini's 50th birthday, the three spend over two hours discussing the final round that led to a sixth green jacket for Jack Nicklaus. They share highlights from the broadcast and compare it to the CBS shows of today, reminisce about the key players at the top of the leaderboard coming down the stretch, and discuss the equipment used by those playing 40 years ago. Enjoy this beefy Flashback/Spotlight, and we'll see you in Augusta on Sunday night.

With Andy on the road, Brendan! is joined by various members of the Fried Egg Golf team for a Wednesday medley episode. He opens by himself following the latest news from Tiger Woods, who announced he was stepping away from the game to seek treatment and focus on his health. Brendan provides the latest on the situation before transitioning into a previously recorded segment with Kevin Van Valkenburg discussing this morning's release of the police report from Tiger's Friday arrest (06:25). The two also unpack some remarks from Browns owner Jimmy Haslam, who is finding a way to ruin Brendan's day in March instead of just during Sundays during the football season. Meg Adkins then stops by to preview this week's Augusta National Women's Amateur (29:35). Meg runs through the top storylines of the week, ANWA's place in the greater women's golf ecosystem, and the quirky format that leads to an interesting leaderboard late on Sunday. Lastly, Joseph LaMagna joins Brendan ahead of his favorite PGA Tour event, the Valero Texas Open at TPC San Antonio (53:35). Brendan questions "the Boys" about what they're most excited for at their first Masters with press credentials, leading to a detailed explanation of PJ's anxieties around press conferences. Joseph takes over for Andy and gives out 5 Guys to Monitor This Week (For Various Reasons) at the Valero, covering local legends and a very topical Game Within a Game for Masters season. Brendan unleashes an all-time rant about youth sports while discussing the Drive, Chip & Putt finals this weekend and poses a quiz to Joseph and PJ as part of the Masters Fact of the Day. Finally, the three discuss the biggest news of the week: Tommy Fleetwood's new hat deal with Blackstone and Jason Kelce's Masters broadcast assignment. We'll be back on Friday with a special Flashback to get you set for the first major of 2026.

Welcome back to Golf's Preeminent Victory Monday Podcast! Andy and Brendan went LIVE on YouTube for this recording, with Brendan calling it a Victory Monday for everyone in the golf world after Gary Woodland's win in Houston. Andy is celebrating a Victory Monday for other reasons as the Fighting Illini are Final Four bound for the first time in 21 years. After some technical hiccups and debate about whether Andy is headed to Indianapolis ahead of the Masters, the two recap an emotional win for Gary Woodland at the Texas Children's Houston Open. The 2019 U.S. Open winner blitzed the field, winning by five shots at the conclusion of Sunday's round and setting the new scoring record for the tournament. Brendan declares Woodland's win the "Story of the Year" given the context surrounding his struggles with PTSD following brain surgery. Andy gives Woodland praise for going public with his diagnosis and commends him on helping not only himself but others in doing so. The two also discuss standout performances from Min Woo Lee, Johnny Keefer, Chris Gotterup, and Sudarshan Yellamaraju. Brendan shares some Substantiated Rumors from the Indian Open at DLF, where it seems as if the DP World Tour may be faking weather reports in order to ensure a fair course setup. Alex Fitzpatrick secured his first win on the DP World Tour, joining his brother, Matt, in the winner's circle following last week's Valspar Championship. In other results, the LPGA has its first repeat winner of 2026, Stew Cink is coming for a playing Ryder Cup captaincy, and the "Davis Zone" has hit the Korn Ferry Tour.
