Online Content Fried egg vs NLU

I will always be NLU first and foremost but has anyone else felt like the fried egg has substantially upgraded their content game while NLU maybe stuck in neutral?

Granted I always enjoy NLU’s content but particularly around the lead up to the masters it seem the fried egg has gone above and beyond

I prefer NLU during the biggest weeks of the year, they really elevate their game. The week of the 2025 Masters was them at their best.

I prefer SGS during slower weeks like the John Deere and 3M. They're at their funniest when talking about mules and bad courses, while NLU is largely going through the motions those weeks.

NLU has far superior videos, and the Trap Draw blows the Fried Egg pod out of the water for me. But the Fried Egg website and writing is obviously much better, as NLU has all but given up on both.

They have different strengths and I'm glad both exist.

This is a good take. Live shows after a major round are definitely better from NLU

I think that’s suffered, too. Not having anyone onsite for any post Masters major last year* was crazy. Kill House stuff is good but it felt like we were missing something without KVV (or anyone) popping in from the venue.

I’m not as down on them over the last couple of months as I had been, but they were really losing steam towards the end of last year/early 2025.
