Dr P is an academic with a particular interest in women's golf as well as the psychology of consumers in the retail space. If you're looking for a way to cure your slice or stop three putting this won't be the show for you but if you enjoy intelligent conversation about big picture topics then you've come to the right place.

Ep 044: An Intriguing Idea For Public Golf
August 10th, 2020 | 56 mins 46 secs
Back in the late 2000's there was a bold and intriguing idea floated at the PGA of Australia to promote and encourage public golf. The plan was to build several template facilities on vacant council land across the nation to be run by PGA members and get new and exsting golfers playing more golf. For all sorts of reasons the idea never got off the ground but could the concept still be relevant today? On Episode 44 we meet one of the architects of the scheme to talk about that plus plenty more.

Ep 40: Time For Blokes To Listen
July 14th, 2020 | 1 hr 1 min
There was quite the response last week when Good Good co-host Adrian Logue retweeted a story from Golf Business UK magazine featuring 30 year golfer Kerry Cooper and her horror story of joining an English golf club. In light of the reaction, it seemed the only sensible thing to do was invite her other podcast to tell her story. So we did.
