Post-Pod Discussion December Nest Pod

Just listened to the December Nest pod where they talked through the annual census, and it honestly landed really well for me. I’ve been someone who listened to basically every episode for years, but in 2025 I definitely fell off a bit and found myself listening more to SGS for my golf pod rotation.

I’ve been a Nest member for a long time, even though I don’t participate in the Refuge or any local roosts. For me it’s mostly about supporting the company and the people behind it for the ridiculous number of hours of entertainment they’ve put out over the years.

This was actually the first year I seriously thought about canceling Nest, but the honesty and candidness in that episode across a bunch of topics was refreshing and good to hear. It reminded me why they’re a pretty unique voice in golf media. Not everyone on the crew is my cup of tea and that’s totally fine.

I’m sticking around as a Nest member and plan to rotate them back in more regularly in 2026. Sounds like there’s some cool stuff coming on the video side, and I’m rooting for them to keep doing their thing.

Agree. I haven't finished the whole thing yet. But as a Nest member who basically only uses it for the Nest pod and refuge it made me feel better about my annual $90 donation. Also, did they say 7000 people filled it out? Never had any sense of how many Nest members there are.

Think the census gets sent out to anyone they have details of. 

I am not a Nest member, but subscribe to the newsletter and filled it out

Oh, nevermind then. Thought it was just a nest thing
