  • Under Par Harmonies - Charles Kelley
    Nov 21 2024

    We’re stoked to have Charles on the podcast this week, and we waste no time jumping into some good stories. After a 7-minute opening from Pepe and Bash, the episode opens up with a memory rehash of a time at Oakmont CC. Charles lends his thoughts on playing at Oakmont and we relive a night there two years ago with George Birge. We jump over to some Augusta talk, and ironically, it’s where Charles grew up. He gives us a glimpse into what growing up next to Augusta National was like, especially with the range balls.

    We switch it up a bit and get into the story of how Charles made it to Nashville. With the band in place, the story of Lady A takes shape, and the rest is history. He refers to this as ‘rare and random’. We chat about Lady A and the path the band has been on, ups and downs. He also hints at a potential ‘solo’ album he’s working on.

    We sprint ahead in this episode and get into some personal talks about his past and the roads he traveled. The episode continues on this path, and we hear about his life and health now and how decisions he’s made have affected him in a positive way.

    We round out the episode with more golf talk. If you’re a golf enthusiast, this golf talk will make too much sense. The episode ends with our standard tap-in segment presented by Bettinardi Golf where we ask Charles four questions that demand his quick response. Tune in, share, like, or love…it’s up to you!

  • Laughing Fore Real - Taylor Tijerina
    Nov 7 2024

    We hear it’s healthy to laugh. Have you? With Taylor Tijerina on today’s episode of Chasin’ Birdies, you’re guaranteed to have a few laughs while giving yourself a dose of a health benefit.

    We open up the episode and get a look into what propelled Taylor on his path to becoming one of social media’s comedian influencers. We hear about his time around COVID when golf was taking off, and work was on the back shelf. He made good use of time and started reeling off videos on TikTok to help build his brand.

    We turn the episode over and chat about his influences on making videos and the role his wife plays in helping him deliver quality content. With a rolodex of content in his phone, it’s clear that this part-time ‘gig’ is going full steam ahead. We merge this into some golf talk and get into some stories of golf and trips with the homies.

    We round out the episode with our standard tap-in segment where we ask Taylor four questions that demand his quick response. Tune in now for a humorous episode and make sure to give TJ a follow on social media. You won’t regret it.

  • Birdies, Bucks, & Ducks - Greg Camp
    Oct 24 2024

    This week’s episode we switch it up from the fairway to the treestand and hang out with our buddy Greg Camp from HALO Waterfowl. This is the second real ‘outdoorsman’ we’ve had on Chasin’ Birdies and we get into a lot of good topics surrounding hunting and a bit of golf.

    We open up the episode and get into what’s been going on with Greg this year and his start of HALO Waterfowl. We hear the whole story and tie it in with a subtle shoutout to his business partner, Riley Green. We talk about wild game, and hunts Greg has been on, including some gnarly ones in Colorado.

    We dissect the best game meat to eat and how to cook it up. Greg has a knack for making things seem too easy with respect to hunting. We talk about hunt trips and how they compare to golf trips. We believe there is a similar parallel between being on the course and being in the woods. We round out the interview with some golf talk and finish with our standard tap-in segment where Greg is asked 4 questions that demand his quick response. Tune in now for a different type of episode on Chasin’ Birdies..and one we feel you’ll enjoy!
