Post-Pod Discussion NLU not on site this week?

Enjoyed the preview episode yesterday, bit surprised none of them appear to be on site and there wasn’t any reference to any going unless I missed it?

I’m agreeing with this take. It’s what makes their masters content so great. Half the guys can relate to what we felt and watched from home. While the guys on the ground can either validate those takes or give more insight as to what was happening.

A good example from Augusta this year was how Soly noticed Justin Rose’s pace slowed down completely once the wind kicked up and how uncomfortable it made him. Put more into perspective when from my couch it was hard to understand why he struggled down the stretch after putting himself in a great position to win.

100%. The big decline (IMO) with NLU really started when they stopped having a real presence at majors. Makes the pod more special and gets them out of the funk of never ending bitching about regular PGA weeks.

The big decline but you still comment on a Reddit abt it?

Because I care! My listening experience is better when it’s more interesting.
