This week's guest is Imagine Golf app founder, Malcolm Scovil. As someone who has been using the app for about a month or so, I'm a huge fan of it and think it could help every level of golfer. Malcolm and I talk about the mental aspects of the game using a few examples of the app's "Daily Drive" segments and the origins of the app itself. As I mentioned in the intro, we only touch on Malcolm's own golf origin story. To learn more about the app, Malcolm's background, and going to college in a little town across the pond called St. Andrews, you should give his episode of Talking Golf Getaways a listen. It's a fantastic conversation. Download and check out the app yourself for FREE for seven days here: Imagine Golf - The #1 Golf App for the Mental Game. You can also follow Imagine Golf on Twitter @ImagineGolfers and Instagram @ImagineGolfers. They're always giving stuff away, so you should definitely follow them! And, as always, you can find me on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube @KrisMcEwen. I'm also giving some stuff away on the YouTube channel, so go subscribe and enter to win! Thanks for listening!

Andy Frye is currently covering sports for Forbes magazine, but he’s also written for ESPN, Rolling Stones, the Chicago Tribune...all without a journalism degree. Andy shares his experiences interviewing some of the biggest names in golf, including Justin Rose, Brooks Koepka, Annika Sorenstam, and David Feherty. He also has written something on LinkedIn, of all places, about his leap from cubicle dweller to sportswriter that I found to be incredibly inspiring. We talk about that, the first sport he ever covered, something called “Fistball”, a few of his golf stories, and a book he’s currently working on called “Smashing Adversity”. If you enjoy unique insights from all different kinds of athletes, in and outside of golf, you should definitely follow Andy on Twitter at @SportyFrye.

Nate Cangemi is a lot like me. Golf obsessed and music obsessed.  Back in the mid-90s, he was inspired to pick up a guitar, just as I was, by what would become one of the great bands of the era in Radiohead. And, in a Golf Origin Stories first, Nate was kind of enough to actually open and close the show this week with a couple of live performances! Besides a fun music conversation, we obviously talk quite a bit of golf, and Nate finally clears up the "golf at Pebble Beach in jeans" controversy! You can follow Nate on Twitter at https://twitter.com/talkinstatic and read his essay "Why I Owe Golf" here: http://www.golfchat.org/why-i-owe-golf/ You can follow me on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube @KrisMcEwen And, if you want to get yourself a Golf Origin Stories t-shirt, you can do that here! https://secondcitygolf.com/product-category/golf-origin-stories/

Zane and I became friends during our round of golf together at Sand Valley during last year's Greaver Cup II trip. And, while I knew he was a golf architecture savant, little did I know less than a year later he would be working at one of the hottest golf design firms in the country! We talk about the Overland Park project he's currently working on, where he'll be headed to next (a very high-profile King-Collins project), his new partner in crime, Oviii, and, of course, when he fell in love with golf. You can follow Zane on Twitter (and you definitely should) at https://twitter.com/StretchZEllis You can also find me on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube at @KrisMcEwen.  Thanks, as always, for listening!
