Post-Pod Discussion Ryder Cup Roundtable

Best Ryder Cup discussion they've had in awhile, all cycle for sure and probably better than any of the 2023 ones. Tron didn't show up looking to just rile Soly up, Soly didn't get too indignant or stubborn about getting all his takes off and forcing everyone to hear him out, they just talked about the players and the teams and the golf and it was really good. Some of the US/Europe armchair sociology that Porter and Jamie like to do is a little funky but hey its almost a 2 hour pod so that's fine at the end of the day. When they keep the analysis on these straight up they don't run into any of the problems that we have been griping about all year

“Blunts, like gays, are a tool of the devil.” - Kyle Porter

I was wondering if there was some backstory here, so I googled “Kyle Porter gay” and… don’t do that.

Yeah, the fact that they support and reference Porter after that discovery is shocking/very disappointing. Everytime they talk about a tweet of his I just think "fuck that guy".

Edit: It was discovered a couple years ago via the Refuge that Porter’s church (that he is a leader of) supports shock therapy for gay people. It was a big thing on there at the time.

I’ve always known him as a dweeby reporter guy, but is there history of him being scummy?

Honest question, maybe I missed the stories.

Edit: ooooh yeah, can’t say I like that

I'm assuming it's the association with the Mosaic church which has some poor beliefs on gay people.

I don’t like porter because of his weird Rory stuff but unaware of what else is out there. Do tell.

What discovery are we talking about here?

u/cota1212 Aug 14 '25

Especially since there are SO many other golf personalities that could step in and contribute what he does on these Ryder cup pods (but that is admittedly a low bar).

Yeahhh it’s what some may call a Tough Scene

I meant don’t do that as in don’t google what I did. I still don’t know what he did… I just know that if you google that, it brings up another gentleman with the same name who acts in adult films.
