After recapping Chris' stellar run at the Massachusetts Amateur and Fitz's crazy US Am qualifier story, the boys dig into Morikawa's impressive win at the British Open, Spieth's run, and Louis' round. They also make predictions on the future for his career and give their opinions on what the "it" factor is in golf. Enjoy!

The Boys return for season 2 after a brief hiatus to discuss their recent golf endeavors, life changes, the US Open, and a British Open preview. 

Chris goes solo for a recap of Garrick Higgo's victory at Congaree and a quick preview of the US Open at Torrey Pines. Enjoy!

COVID-19 secures its first PGA Tour victory as it takes out Jon Rahm on Saturday, holding a 6 shot lead. Cantlay ended up beating Morikawa in what turned out to be an exciting finish. Chris and Fitz dive into the Brooks vs Bryson rivalry, some golf hypotheticals, and talk the Women's US Open. Enjoy!

Chris and Fitz come together in the "studio" for the first time in a LONG time to discuss Kokrak's victory over Spieth, lingering thoughts from the PGA, Bryson vs Brooks, and Ryder Cup scenarios. Enjoy!

Chris goes solo to recap a thrilling week at Kiawah. He looks at the significance of Phil's victory, his time at the course on Thursday, the crazy scene on 18, and how it will motivate Tiger to get back inside the ropes. Enjoy!

After a bit of a hiatus, Chris and Fitz come back hot and talk about Chris's cross country golf trip, where he played at major venues, endured a round in the snow, and shot 29 before reaching Pennsylvania. They also dig into Rory's comeback win, his chances at the PGA Championship, and the news about the PGL. Enjoy!

A long-time friend of the pod, the Sarge, joins Fitz and Chris to discuss Team Cink's win at the RBC Heritage. Chris gives his Masters takes a week late and shares his controversial Hall of Fame algorithm, sparking a contentious debate about who should and shouldn't get in. Enjoy! 

Fitz sits down with his good friend, Owen, to discuss Hideki's dominant Masters win and the ramifications on Japanese golf. They discuss Xander's charge, followed by his demise, disappointment for some of the game's top dogs, Spieth's week, and young Willy Z's future at Augusta. 

The Masters!! We open with a discussion about the shocking amount of underdogs who have slipped on the jacket, and then dive into everything about this year's Masters. We talk course setup, Bryson's outrageous presser, and who we are buying and selling to make a run. We also talk our favorite traditions at Augusta and much more in this jam packed episode!

Absolute legend Ryan Whitney joins the pod - former NHL player now at Barstool and co-host of the Spittin' Chiclets podcast. Chris miserably fails at trying to talk shit about beating Whit on the golf course, and we have a riot talking everything golf, hockey, and more. We then talk Valero recap, Spieth's incredible victory, and our favorite Masters traditions to start your Masters week off with a bang!

Chris and Fitz dive into an exciting week at the WGC Matchplay, Joel Dahmen's win at Corales, and discuss some new content coming in the next few weeks!

Chris, Fitz, and their buddy Jackson draft US states based on golf. There are no criteria. Whatever you think makes that state great is fair game. The episode features great value picks, some garbage picks, wild cards, and total snubs.

Justin Thomas gets in done at The Players despite a fortunate bounce on the last hole. Bryson cold tops a tee ball and doesn't have enough magic to be there in the end. Sad day for Lee, as he lets another one slips through his fingers and Rory admits he has struggled with chasing distance. Full recap and more!

Chris and Fitz chop it up with Meghan Tarmey and Madison Pool of The Caddy Girls (now known as The Caddy Group). They share great stories about going on Shark Tank, living with Dustin Johnson in college, what it's like to be a Caddy Girl, and how you can book them at your next golf outing.

One of the most fun tournaments of the year at Bay Hill this weekend, and Bryson came out on top. We all saw the vintage Spieth we know and love with birdies, aces, and bunker hole-outs. Lee Westwood still can't win, and might sit at 2 PGA Tour victories forever. Chris ran into Gary Player over the weekend, and Sean brings up his controversial past. 

Just Sean and Mike today who talk about Bryson trying to drive the 555-yard par 5 6th at Bay Hill.  This leads to our weekly dose of shitting on the PGA Tour and an honest discussion on Matthew Wolff.  We most importantly, have a ton of fun delving into the site of this weeks LPGA Tour site which boasts numerous knockoffs of holes were all too familiar with. 

Tiger is stable and recovering in the hospital, which is huge news for the golfing world. Chris gets put in a body bag by his Niece over a Zoom call, and in an episode without Sean, Chris and Mike talk about the wardrobes on display at The Concession. Thank god Patrick Reed didn't win, and Morikawa is a sneaky killer on the golf course. Rory continues to disappoint; will he ever win again? Mike chokes the matchup results (not a surprise) and Chris gets furious about the OWGR. Listen to the chaos now! 

An incredible tournament at Riviera led to Max Homa defeating Tony Finau in what turned out to be a wild finish. Finau still can't get the job done, and Homa cements his legacy in LA. Sam Burns gets burned by the pressure and Spieth still can't close the deal. Chris has a brutal matchup week and continues to dig a hole by claiming LeBron is the GOAT. BillyHo Golf opens a restaurant in Columbus, OH and we entertain the possibility of an ASMR mukbang.

After revealing some questionable takes about golf movies, the full crew is back and waxes lyrical about Riviera. We then discuss a bit about Will Zalatoris's odd standing in terms of playing status and Chris reveals how he spent his entire day making a Jordan Spieth tribute video. 

The Chili Dip Pod returns after a week of hectic life events and the technological choke of the century. Jordan Spieth has also (almost) returned. With Chris MIA, Sean and Mike break down the past two weeks of the revitalized Jordan and praise DBstraitvibin for being one of the best in golf.  We eventually deconstruct the science behind white pants and relive some of our toughest tournament outings in tribute to the great Matt Every. 

The boys extensively break down the new USGA/R&A distance proposal, while getting into a lengthy debate stemming from Webb Simpson's polarizing reaction to the reports. We speculate on whether Kyle Stanley is also on the NASCAR circuit and pick apart Paul Casey's curious flip-flopping on his decision to play in the Kingdom this week. 

Where do we start? Well, Patrick Reed seems to have a knack for controversy and the lads dive heavily into his win, the rules scandal, his burner account, and whether or not he is good for the game of golf. Top five Tony has another solid week, and the boys also unpack Rory's confrontation with the rules and debate whether or not it was overblown. Paul Casey won convincingly across the pond and gave good reason to think he's a sharp play for the masters, I guess? In other news, the Chili Dip went viral on Tik Tok and Instagram this week! Check us out @chilidippod and enjoy an episode from the most exciting week of the season thus far! 

Sean drives through Florida on a mini vacation as he and Chris discuss the Farmers Insurance Open in an episode without Pasqo. Chris and Sean wonder where Justin Rose has been, and question his future in golf? Mike chokes (again) and botches his picks for Backasswards. Other topics discussed include Koepka leaving Claude Harmon, Euro Tour shit, Southern Hills in 2022 and more chaos. 

Si Woo gets it done in another stadium setting but more importantly, the Mad Hatter creates some magic in the Middle East! Chris, Sean, and Mike discuss what's up with Tony Finau coming down the stretch and why Rory cannot win.  Strong week in backasswards as they proceed to break down the absolutely shambolic scenes at the LPGA event and the atrocious coverage. 

Mike is once again delusional (not a surprise) as we preview the AMEX and HSBC tournaments coming up. We also dive into the funniest celebrity moments in pro-ams, and encourage Mike to transition to a stand-up putter. Chris joins the dark side and teams up with enemy Tyrell Hatton, and we all begin to lose our minds at the end.

Chris, Mike, and Sean recap everything at Sony from Kevin Na's victory to Chris Kirk's gutsy performance. They also dissect the baffling statement from Ralph Lauren in the wake of dropping JT and El Pato tarnishes his name.  Hopefully, they don't do too much damage to your frontal lobes!

An epic debate erupts over the standards of the World Golf Hall of Fame and who deserves to be in. We compare players on the brink such as Zach Johnson, Retief Goosen, Luke Donald, Lee Westwood, Bubba Watson, and more. We then move into the Sony Open, matchups, and our patented Backasswards segment. Sean helps us close out our 2022 PGA Championship discussion from last episode to close things out. Enjoy!!!

After a crazy weekend consisting of playoff football and Hawaii golf, Chris and Pasqo recap Harris English’s playoff win against Chilean stud Joaquin Niemann. In an episode without Sean, Chris argues with Pasqo about the PGA removing Trump Bedminster from the 2022 slate, Keegan’s apparent gambling issues, and why Xander is ranked way too high in the OWGR. We also discuss Spieth getting help from Butch, Bryson’s ridiculous outfits, and Lukas Michel’s amazing victory at the Aussie Master of the Amateurs. Enjoy!

Even on a surreal and unprecedented day in American history, the boys are fired up for the resumption of the PGA Tour season and the 2021 calendar year.  We look ahead and talk about what we hope 2021 in golf has in store for us and of course preview Kapalua, where champions and non-champions alike will be teeing it up. 

Professional golfer, Youtuber, public speaker, and podcaster Andrew Jensen joins Fitz and Pasqo to talk professional golf, turning professional, Youtube haters, and more. Andrew shares his incredible backstory, including his attempts to take his own life, and talks about the relationship between mental health and the game of golf. Thanks to Andrew for giving his time and be sure to check him out on Youtube and on Instagram @andrewsjensen.

The guys dig into some Christmas related golf questions and chop it up in an agenda-free episode. No guest. Just Chris, Fitz, and Pasco. What's the best golf-related Christmas gift? Is eggnog disgusting? What part of golf should we be most thankful for? Of course, the Dip finds a way to debate it all.

Chase Seiffert joins the pod this week and talks everything PGA Tour with Fitz including playing his rookie year on the PGA Tour, playing under pressure, what separates the Korn Ferry Tour from the PGA Tour, and why he keeps rubber duckies in his golf bag! 

Sunday got rained out at the US Women's Open so nothing really to offer. Patrick Reed flops in his beloved sand as 47-year-old Lee Westwood stands alone at the top, proving the Race to Dubai is still an absolute sham.  But before all that nonsense, the boys hand out awards for the best that golf had to offer in this year from hell. 

No Chris this Thursday as finals week claims another victim.  Sean and Pasqo show some love for the LPGA as they play the US Women's Open, and rag on the USGA for their curious solution to their driving range conundrum.  It's the season finale for the European Tour and boys are disturbed by two non-European Tour members in the top five of the Race to Dubai.  Most importantly, we speculate on what Louis Oosthuizen and Bubba will be talking about at the QBE Shootout and marvel at how insufferable the Shark has become. 

Viktor Hovland's impressive win in Mayakoba officially ended the long-doomed Puerto Rico curse. However, has a new one begun? The boys discuss the win just before Fitz berates Snoop Dogg for his unusual use of Instagram. They recap matchups, Backasswards, and Eurozone before honoring the great Peter Alliss. Also, Beau doesn't know.

The boys chop it up this week with their good friend and resident picks expert, Boomer. They start off by debating the success of The Match and move into their picks for this week's event in Mayakoba. They talk horses for courses, backasswards, matchups, and whether or not Joaquin Niemann hits it high enough to clear the famous cave bunker. They close by debating who can benchpress the most, firing off Eurozone takes and talking whether or not FedExCup points should be traded like currency.

One of golf's brightest young stars and NCAA Champion with Stanford, Isaiah Salinda joins the pod to talk everything golf. We had a lot of fun chopping it up with this stud. Listen Now!

Assistant coach for Vanderbilt Men's Golf, Gator Todd, joins the pod and talks about his fascinating golf journey, battle in the professional ranks, and his path to becoming a coach for the current No. 1 ranked team in the country.

Bob Harig joins the pod to talk everything Masters, DJ's incredible performance, the possibility of Bryson using PEDs, and more!

Sungjae Im is now an American homeowner! Nick Faldo, Michelle Wie, and the broadcast team covering The Masters were horrendous, and Chris somehow argues the greatness of James Braid (Won the 1901 British Open). Meanwhile, DJ conducted a spectacular masterpiece and elevated his career among the all-time greats. In other news, Tiger made a 10 on hole 12 and Bryson was allegedly too dizzy to hit a golf ball. No Euro Zone this week, because, well, no one really gives a shit. 

Its fucking Masters week, and in our best episode yet we bring on special guest Ronan O'Connor. Loads of segments and picks, and Ronan tells us about the time he took $100 from Jordan Spieth. Listen to the chaos unfold!
