One of the things I mentioned that had me having to put my video project aside is that I was contacted by journalist, writer and producer Josh Karp last month, and he inquired if I’d like to participate in a golf podcast pilot to discuss World Golf Hall of Famer Tom Weiskopf.

Josh is a writer who has written several books, one about golf called “Straight Down The Middle.”

He’s had commercial success – his first book, “A Futile and Stupid Gesture,” was turned into a Netflix movie in 2018, and his third book, “Orson Welles’s Last Movie,” became the basis for Oscar-winning director Morgan Neville’s documentary “They’ll Love Me When I’m Dead,” which he also coincidentally co-produced.

He’s currently working on a golf podcast about the greatest golf swings in history (Tom Weiskopf’s was definitely one) and emailed me to ask if I could join him to offer my thoughts on T.W., – of course, talking golf is something I love and I readily agreed.

Weiskopf won 16 times on the Tour, including the Open Championship in 1973 and two Canadian Opens, one of which featured a famous playoff victory over Jack Nicklaus in ’73 as well.

He designed 70 courses including Loch Lochmond (site of the Scottish Open from ’95-’10) and two course in Troon North, Scottsdale.

His swing was greatly admired and some will argue better than even Jack Nicklaus’ swing – a fellow competitor of theirs, Dave Hill, once quipped that if you had put Jack Nicklaus’ head on Tom Weiskopf’s body, the world would have had to worry.

The podcast will feature several guests who discuss various legends, and I spent a good deal of time preparing for it.

We did my bit on Weiskopf today, and I have to compliment Josh on his easy-going manner – it was like two guys discussing golf over a pint at the pub.

The podcast pilot is for The Golfer’s Journal and Josh has informed me that the podcast will start airing sometime in 2026, so I will let you all know when I know more, for those who want to catch it.

I have a feeling that good time are returning to WAX Golf, friends – I have missed the days before the pandemic, when especially the years between 2015-2018 when I was putting out videos, working personally and traveling to consult with golfers and participating in WAX Golf summits to talk golf swing.
