In a Christmas tradition unlike any other, we have a wide-ranging discussion including an update on Mike's 10k consequence from the Autumn Gauntlet, fashions we held on for too long, songs that represent our current progress, whether we'd be scratch on easier courses, faking dramatic readings, Seinfeld characters that best represent our games, the most sensitive question we've ever been asked, we unapologetically retell a story we told last Christmas episode, and we assess how we would hold up as a Mall Santa. We'll be back the first week of January for Season 6.  Kudos to the Golfer's Journal: https://www.golfersjournal.com/gift Want bonus content?
