EP42: While the Cot's away Mar 05, 2024

Show notes

With Andrew up a mountain in Scotland it's left to Eddie, in his Oxfordshire barn and Iain, also up a mountain - more accessibly in the Alps, to bring the latest TCF offering where there's some shocking news about not-so-uncle Tony, Iain's sneaky NR and what Andrew's main attributes would be if he was on golfing computer game. There's also ample time to discuss Anthony Kim's disastrous return to golf, Thomas Detry's six-putt meltdown, Eddie's return to blogging causing a tabloid stir and we hear from England's Bronte Law as she returns to winning ways.

EP41: A Tale of Two Knapps Feb 27, 2024

Show notes

This week the trio aim for brevity and a concise summing up of all matters golf and in doing so fail comprehensively. Part of this is due to a prolonged discussion about whether a strange dog walker on the Isle of Wight is related to Eddie and Iain being (falsely) accused of industrial espionage. More serious chat comes in praise for the best golfer who ever drove a Morrisons van and admiration for the game and the guns of Jake Knapp. Plus some other stuff. There’s a lot in there.

EP40: Eddie’s Big Game Hunt Feb 21, 2024

Show notes

This week Eddie is in Kenya looking to find his game and learns that he will have to do so in the company of the Godfather of Kenyan professional golf. Iain returns with tales of German stag weekends in Budapest, while Andrew admits to entering a golf tournament but is vague on the details. The trio also review the weekend in La La Land and welcome back Hideki Matsuyama and Will Zalatoris while wondering if the PGA Tour is getting value for money. And also wonder if Jon Rahm has hairy feet.

EP39: Semi-naked Sliding Spectators. Feb 13, 2024

Show notes

This week the trio consider drinking, partying and generally being obnoxious. Then decide to record a pod instead.

But what is going on with behaviour at golf events, or indeed, in general? The weekend’s PGA Tour event left us with much to ponder. Eddie informs us that the best result of his Middle East trip was being summoned forward by the captain on his return flight, leaving good men back in the wasteland of premium economy. Andrew tells us of the agony of being labelled a queue jumper. Iain tells us how he once went paintballing with a group of children.

EP38: The Bahrain Barry Burn. Feb 05, 2024

Show notes

Hey there Chief / Fella / My Friend… This week the miraculously award-winning podcast (thank you all) returns to discuss any number of matters loosely centred around the world of golf. Eddie has moved on to Qatar and professes to be in a happier place after his missed cut than he was with his top-20 the week before. He celebrates his good humour by buying an inappropriate laptop. The season opener of LIV is considered, as it appeared to notch a victory over the PGA Tour with Pebble Beach a washout, but our trio question the value of either product when not that many people are watching. Eddie also takes the opportunity to apologise to the podcast’s number one fan.1

EP37: Eddie the Elegant Jan 29, 2024

Show notes

On this week’s episode, Eddie returns to tell us the SENSATIONAL TRUTH behind what appeared to be a fairly standard top-20 place in Ras Al Khaimah. The trio also discuss Matthieu Pavon turning saliva into success on the PGA Tour, more big-name signings on the way for LIV and somebody who may well be the best driving instructor in Aberdeen.

EP36: Pay the Cheese Tax Jan 23, 2024

Show notes

This week Eddie has gone AWOL in the Middle-East, but we're sure he’s fine. So it’s left to Andrew and Iain to try and maintain the interest of listeners, which they decide to do by talking about chopping logs, the virtues of electric cars and songs about cheese. In addition to this they ask whether Nick Dunlap should turn pro immediately, or continue to study finance, where he could learn about various ways to make money. They also pose the vital question ‘Are you more famous than Martin Bayfield?’

Who knew that Eddie was actually the glue holding this nonsense together?

EP35: Ronnie Corbett’s Road Rage Jan 16, 2024

Show notes

In the sensationalist way of the modern world, we will tell you that this week’s episode involves a CHEATING confession by a leading tour player and also how a tour player was recently involved in a failed ARSON attempt. Naturally, both of these tour players turn out to be Eddie Pepperell. Meanwhile, Eddie is jetting off to Dubai to join Iain ahead of the Desert Classic while Andrew has travelled from his kitchen to his study with a cup of tea and all three come together to discuss the worst four-round score in European Tour history, Grayson Murray taking Rory’s advice to ‘play better’ and the imminent departure of Keith Pelley to take charge of the Toronto Superdudes. This episode is brought to you by Bosch masonry drills.

EP34: LIV golfer TALKS!! Insider TELLS ALL!!! Jan 09, 2024

Show notes

Well, it’s Laurie Canter actually. And he’s very nice. And not technically a LIV golfer at the moment. Anyway, he does give us all a good insight into the attraction of LIV, while also mentioning a brief encounter with Peter Gabriel as Iain, Andrew and Eddie get into the idea of left-handed practise as well as reviewing and previewing the PGA Tour events in Hawaii. And they all come round to the idea that they should try to win the golf podcast of the year award because their bosses have told them to.

This week’s episode is brought to you by Pachesham Driving Range

EP33: Nigella's Travel Mustard Jan 03, 2024

Show notes

The Chipping Forecast returns with an EXTRAVAGANZA to start the year. And by extravaganza we mean that Andrew, Eddie and Iain spend much of the time talking about Rory McIlroy’s appearance on another podcast. They also touch upon darts, Nigella Lawson and Henrik Stenson’s golfing mouse. They also promise to improve on this episode as the year progresses.
