Tony and his rotating line-up of regular guests always provide for an entertaining listen. It is nominally a sports show, but they often discuss culture, news, and politics just as much.

I would say i listened to 95% of episodes of this podcast for over 10 years. Great entertainment and bizare that a 40 year old middle class male could relate to a beligerant old rich jewish man like Tony - and yet i did. The team were great and the format included no invterviews of players or coaches who trot out cliches, just firends sharing their insights and expertise and talking rubbish in between.Then Tony's son got involved and the show has become a lot more about him and we lost a lot of the nonsensical guests that gave the show its community feel. Its fine, its Tony's prerogative, but he is harder to relate to - given all the hand outs his father has given him over the years and yet here he is "working" for his dad making a podcast and doing a bit of golf coaching on the side, despite an Ivy league education. I check-in from time to time (every few months), but it just isn't the same show without the Cizila v Braun banter and even when the other regulars make a spot appearance, it is diluted by Tony's son's need to seem to want to be the centre of attention or to show off his knowledge of golf. We just want to hear tony talk golf - he's a hacker, we're all hackers, that's how we relate..
