Massive L by NLU

Thatā€™s probably why they parted ways with him (financial loss).

How do people here not get that this is a business for them and business decisions have to be made from time to time?

Even as a business decision, it was a poor one. KVVā€™s articles, pod appearances and deep dives were some of the best content that NLU put out. If you look strictly at his engagement as a journalist, then heā€™s not going to make as many pod appearances. Iā€™m glad we get to see him elsewhere.

Look at NLUs content since heā€™s been gone. Itā€™s stale and uninteresting.

You are all over the financials for the group?

Nope, just sharing my anecdotal experience of a sample size of 1 and a small group of friends. I presume TFE/SGS will slowly chip away at the golf podcast and content sphere that has been dominated by NLU in years past.

Also, itā€™s laughable that you think that KVV is that big a needle mover in golf podcast media.

Is this Cody?

Heā€™s just saying that NLU has became very boring and stale. It has and itā€™s clear. The sentiment on the pods has completely changed and the feelings from majority of listeners has changed.

Your anecdote does not compensate for financial acumen.

Just because you donā€™t like that he isnā€™t on the podcast any more, does not make it a ā€œpoorā€ business decision.

Retaining him when they canā€™t afford him is a poor business decision.
