  • Golf and Gospel's Geremy Davis spreads the word, talks golf and the NFL
    Jul 25 2024

    Don't get the wrong idea. The Approach Shot has turned into a religious show. But when Golf and Gospel's Geremy Davis (former collegiate and NFL football player) drops by to talk about his You Tube series "Golf and Gospel" we get into a bunch of intriguing topics; food, football, music, and yes, golf and gospel.

    Geremy has a great sense of humor and just because he is a "believer" doesn't mean he gets a break on the dreaded 6 pack. (also, one of my favorite questions ever- have you ever had your dreads hit you in the face when golfing? Spoiler alert- the answer is YES.)

    This is an entertaining and intriguing episode!

  • A 13 MLB veteran and a member of the Canadian baseball Hall of Fame, eh? ROB DUCEY is our guest on The Approach Shot
    Jul 14 2024

    When you think of 13 year MLB veteran, you don't think of a ton of home runs. Nor do you think of a bucket of stolen bases. But as a left handed contact hitter, who hit well and was a great defensive player, Rob carved out a terrific career that got him inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame.
    These days, he plays a lot of golf and is involved with the company that makes and sells the Core Energy Belt, which is being used by both baseball players and golfers alike. Rob talks about baseball, golf and the growth of Core Energy in Japan and here in the US on this episode of The Approach Shot.

  • MLB All Star closer TREVOR ROSENTHAL throws some heat on this week's episode of The Approach Shot
    Jun 23 2024

    Batters did not want to see him on the mound. Fans loved his heat! One of the very first to throw 100 mph, he had tremendous success in the majors, when healthy. He is one of only SEVEN pitchers in Major League Baseball HISTORY to ever have back-to-back 45 save seasons (not even the great Mariano Rivera did that).
    His golf game may not be All Star caliber, but he sure tells great stories of baseball, golf and coming back from injuries. TREVOR ROSENTHAL takes the mound on this week's terrific episode of The Approach Shot.

  • Author and Columnist for the Baltimore Sun, JOHN EISENBERG brings decades of stories to The Approach Shot
    Jun 4 2024

    This is Part Two of our conversation with longtime columnist and author JOHN EISENBERG. We talk about his golf game, and he faces (and aces) the dreaded SIX PACK!
    We talk about his new book, "Rocket Men", which offers an inside look at the Black quarterbacks whose skill and grit transformed the NFL; and some of his other books including "The League", which focuses on the pioneering sportsmen who kept the league alive in the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s, when its challenges were many and its survival was not guaranteed; and "The Streak" the book dedicated to Cal Ripken pursuit and eventually takeover of Lou Gehrig's Iron Man record. This is a great listen from a terrific storyteller.
