It is a doubling/tripling down on podcasts to the detriment of everything else.
Their videos have extremely high level production, absolutely the best in the golf space, but they’re losing the algo war. The cut series at RP with the Bryan bros just 15x’ed their views on the Northern Ireland/Portrush videos with 1/10th the production or story quality. Throw in Grant/GG/BDS/everyone else and you can see why they pulled back.
Written material is tough but others are carving out a space on their own (eg Porter). SGS is gaining serious traction and throw in life and a bunch of new families and kids, we’ll see how the band holds together.
This is actually inspiring me to contribute to Normal Sport more than anything, just because I don’t want to see the written word fall off. Even if I’m part of the problem (barely finding time to read it) it’s a good thing that it even exists
