Before we get to that, Andy is eager to discuss a bit of their trip to Scotland as part of the first-ever segment of \"Pillow Talk.\" Brendan shares some shopping woes when trying to get gifts for his family and Andy is still reeling from his 24-hour travel day earlier this week. Brendan then calls Andy out for his new TaylorMade Spider putter, supplied to him by Big Equipment after he called for them to be banned on Tour earlier this year. After missing out on Wednesday's discussion about the \"Pool Seen 'Round the World,\" Brendan gets some takes off about the Chevron's new \"water installation\" and Andy wonders how the LPGA can allow this to be the main storyline of the one major championship they own.

The Boys are praying that he will be their next guest for Lunch to break down his big debut at the US Senior Open in July. Andy and Brendan also discuss the ongoing LIV funding saga and doubt if anyone can even come close to replicating the purses that the PIF has funded in the last five years. Lastly before this episode's main event, PGA Tour is out of Hawaii and announced dozens of layoffs on Thursday as a cost-saving measure as the for-profit business moves forward. Andy and PJ went to town on the 2026 Zurich Classic Walk Up Music Quiz, peppering Brendan with songs for perhaps the worst field in PGA Tour history. How do Shawn Mendes, the Eagles, Gordon Lightfoot, and Nelly all fit into this week in New Orleans? You'll have to listen to o…","meta_description":"Brendan! is back stateside and returns just in time for the seventh annual Zurich Classic Walk Up Music Quiz!
