Tom Coyne spent four months walking 1,118 miles around the links of Ireland, and it turned into a bestseller. Nearly two decades later his book has become a television series, and this time he had company, considerably better accommodations and a few less miles on foot. A Course Called Ireland premieres Sunday on Paramount+ and the BBC, with our editor playing the links of Northern Ireland and the Republic alongside Bill Murray and a rotating cast of Murrays and friends. In this episode, Coyne is joined by Joel Murray, Johnny Murray and executive producer Casey Scharf to share their favorite stories from the show, including a surf lesson that went sideways, how a massage therapist ended up on the crew and what it actually takes to keep Bill in line.

Ari Emanuel celebrated a $13 billion deal by playing Augusta National, then skipping lunch to fly home and sign Judd Apatow the same day. Here's how much the man who inspired Ari Gold on Entourage loves golf: He’s frustrated right now because his book tour has kept him off the course for weeks. On this episode, Emanuel joins host Tom Coyne to unpack his bestseller Roll the Calls, explain why golf is the one place his temper never follows him, and regale us with stories from rounds with Mark Wahlberg and Larry David.

Club logos may be the most talked-about and least examined objects in golf. So George Peper took the deep dive. In this episode, he joins Tom Coyne to unpack The Best Logos in Golf, his new book ranking the game's best club emblems. Peper explains the seven criteria his panel argued over, why almost none of the winners contain a golf ball or a club, and the list of rules they created for logo life, including one he's violating during the interview. Peper spent 25 years as editor-in-chief of Golf Magazine, where he built the original ranking of the world's 100 greatest courses and, he confesses here, rigged the first one so an American course wouldn't finish No. 1. He also shares the best stories the research turned up: the sea lion that bolted from a 1930s photo shoot and left a nine-holer its logo, the pirate who never existed and now brings Tampa $40 million a year, and why there’s a propeller in the logo of Coyne's own course.

Tre Lamb once coached a college football game wearing a Southern Hills hoodie. If that isn't enough proof that the University of Tulsa head football coach is a golf sicko, his +1.6 handicap is the lowest of any college football coach. On this episode of the TGJ Podcast, Lamb joins host Tom Coyne ahead of Week 1 to share how his day job bleeds into his golf life, including stories of playing a donor for a new set of helmets, how he learned to golf by throwing a football and the money games settled on the putting green of his transfer portal house. Lamb admits he'd take a Green Jacket over a national championship ring, and that’s just one reason why after listening to this episode you may just become a Golden Hurricanes fan.

Philadelphia 76ers head coach Nick Nurse was standing over a par putt this summer when his phone rang: LeBron James was calling. Basketball and golf constantly overlap for Nurse, who the sports world now knows as James’ new coach. But most don’t know that he is also a golf course owner. On this episode of the TGJ Podcast, Nurse joins Tom Coyne to talk about rescuing his course (Carroll National GC in Iowa), what 40 rounds at Disney during the 2020 NBA bubble playoffs in Orlando did for his game, and why the Philly golf scene may have had something to do with LeBron's decision to sign.
