| Episode 72: Rose Bowl Dreams, Driver Drama & President’s Cup Boots on the Ground | 16 Sep 2026 | 01:40:21 | |
The boys are back in Todd’s basement after another very wet stretch of Island golf. This week, they recap the Belfast Open, the Island Open, Anthony Warren’s impressive win in the slop, and Len’s painful slide out of a Rose Bowl spot. They also talk about the loaded Belvedere Rose Bowl team, the upcoming Maritime Cup, Todd making the team, and why golf tournaments need more social media and a proper history book. Plus, Cabot Wilds is coming to Nova Scotia, Hunter Burke has another albatross, Darren Fairhurst makes an ace, and Todd’s brother cuts down the best driver he’s ever owned. Naturally, this creates a full-blown golf etiquette crisis. The episode wraps up with President’s Cup talk, the International Team’s chances in Medina, Len’s 50th birthday trip, “airboxes,” “thinking domes,” and the official announcement that Island Green & Beyond will have boots on the ground at the President’s Cup. From tee to tide, it's Island Green & Beyond. | |||
| Episode 71 - Old Home Week, Dirty Pond Shots and Golf Cheats | 21 Aug 2026 | 01:57:56 | |
⛳ After more than a month away, Len, Chris, and Todd are finally back—and Episode 71 wastes no time going off the rails! Todd survives Old Home Week with the kids before recapping a dream golf trip to Ireland featuring seven courses in seven days, brutal links conditions, Guinness, caddies, and a costly game of Snakes 🐍. Back home, the crew tackles $180 US green fees, playing as a single, presses, retrogression, and a family scramble victory that may deserve a sizeable asterisk 🏆. There’s also plenty of local golf to celebrate, including Hunter Burke’s historic US Junior Amateur appearance, Archer McDougall’s inspiring comeback, club championship winners, and Len’s knee-deep rescue attempt at the Stanhope Open. Things finish with an outrageous staged hole-in-one scam 🎥, Len throws a curveball about dimpled cars 🚗, and the usual reminder that no topic is too strange for Island Green and Beyond. | |||
| Episode 70 - Amateur Chaos, Caddy Confessions and Deck Hornets | 09 Jul 2026 | 01:50:59 | |
⛳ Len, Chris, and Todd are officially back for Episode 70, just one week before the next major! This week, the crew recaps the PEI Amateur, congratulating Owen Mullen on his championship victory 🏆 and Curtis Hall on capturing the one day title. They debate whether ultra tough, “Iron Man” course setups make golf better or simply take the fun out of chasing a low score. Todd shares a caddie story for the ages as the mystery of his missing pitching wedge unfolds 🔍, before the conversation heads in every direction imaginable. From a provisional ball rules disaster, to a 14 year old preparing for the biggest junior tournament in the world, to a hornet’s nest under the deck 🐝 and a heartfelt nod to the Ken Mac Family Classic, there’s plenty to unpack. As always, things wrap up with plenty of laughs, including Rick Shields’ best golf chirps 😂 and a deer balls joke that Len instantly regrets asking for. | |||
| Episode 69: Back From the Break – Myrtle Mayhem, Portugal & Tesla Farts | 23 Jun 2026 | 02:15:28 | |
Recorded live from Todd's place on US Open weekend - three months since the last pod, so the boys have officially decided Island Green is a majors-only operation now. Wyndham Clark's leading and everyone's quietly rooting for the choke- that didn't end well.🍿 Len's Myrtle Beach Month: The trail cards, a third-place mixed scramble with Bernadette, $2 birdie beers, and the $9.99 car wash deal. 🚗 Todd's Portugal Trip: A no-kids couples getaway, a giant unexplained statue in the middle of a golf course, and ChatGPT moonlighting as a travel caddie. The man will play golf in a different country but won't get paired with a stranger at home. ⛳ Chris Goes Tesla and has the "Reider" Incident. Also: Chris's two-bucks-a-pop yard sale, Scotty's "playing on or not?" moment at Cabot, Todd's near-ace on a par 4, a closed putter face and a left-handed shaft tip, the upside-down nine iron with a six-iron loft, the Avondale & Country View Opens, 14-year-old Hunter Burke draining the playoff winner, the Jacqueline Taylor show, Mark Carragher grinding through the cold - and a heated argument over whether golf even belongs in the Olympics. From tee to tide, it's Island Green & Beyond. | |||
| Episode 68: Masters Sunday - Parlays, Prayers & a $5 Miracle | 14 Apr 2026 | 01:38:21 | |
Hello friends. Recorded live from Todd's basement on Masters Sunday before Rory & Cam Young teed off - boys are fired up. Chris's Miracle Bet: $5 on a specific player to get a hole in one. Who makes that bet? Tiger's Off-Course Adventures: Another fender bender, a foggy TGL showing, and a whole lot of "what are you doing, man." The boys debate Tiger the golfer vs. Tiger the person, whether they'd go to the bar with Scheffler, and who they'd actually want to ride to the club with. 🚗 AI as Your Golf Pro: Len took a screenshot of Chris's Trackman numbers and the boys are shook. 🤖⛳ Burger Love Chaos: Seafood Shack's brisket sandwich got rejected at the last minute for not qualifying as a burger. PEI's April beef event caused actual drama. The boys land on a three-inch burger height limit. 🍔 Also: Todd's Vokey family encounter on a flight from Florida, RBC Scramble sandbagger complaints, remote golf cart horror stories, what the PGA Tour would shoot at Belvedere, and whether Chris would get two birdies at Augusta.

Len, Chris, and Todd are back in Todd’s basement for Episode 67. The guys dive into AI-generated podcast clips, Len’s hockey hype video that fired up the Islanders, and whether getting too pumped before a game can actually hurt performance. Then the golf talk heats up with a wild simulator round where Len fires a 60 at Cabot Cliffs, followed by a debate sparked by Scottie Scheffler about whether a 10 handicap is actually a good golfer. Plus Players Championship chatter, Canadian PGA rookies to watch, and the usual Island golf stories. | |||

Episode 66 is here and the boys are BACK — live from Todd's basement! Travel Chaos: Todd's Toronto trip turned into a 20-hour airport nightmare, followed by a mid-flight medical emergency involving dropped pants, oxygen tanks, and an off-duty in-flight nurse. Then Vegas delivered Backstreet Boys at the Sphere, a timeshare ambush ("Why didn't you do it, man?!"), and a mind-blowing mentalist show. Len's Florida golf trip had its own drama — Murph's car overheating at 3am (ChatGPT to the rescue), Pudge getting pulled into secondary for a contraband roast beef sandwich, and forgetting to pack golf shirts... on a golf trip. Also: Super Bowl WOAT, Hunter Burke's T5 finish at Future Champions Golf Tour, Winter Olympics hot takes (why does biathlon exist?), Valentine's Day plans, and Len's Florida golf recap. | |||

And some golf stuff too mixed in there - come on, it's not exactly Golf Season. Pull up a chair, a beer, and enjoy. | |||

The Island Green crew is back for their first episode of 2026, broadcasting once again from the Basement of Dreams with beers in hand and zero distractions, allegedly. Len, Chris, and Todd wrap up their golf year with laughs over Golf Canada “wrapped” stats, travel stories, rounds played across the country and abroad, and what it really means to be in the top one percent of golf supporters. The conversation drifts into private club board life, pace of play complaints, why volunteering sounds great until it involves effort, and how to instantly silence a frustrated member. Along the way, the boys reflect on podcast life, listener dedication, viral moments that may or may not exist, and officially kick off sim season while raising a glass to more golf in 2026. | |||
| Episode 63: The Broncos Santa Suit, Simulator Season & The Belfast Open Debate | 09 Dec 2025 | 01:29:31 | |
The boys are back in the basement with Chris sporting an aggressive Denver Broncos Santa hat and sweater combo. In this episode, the crew recaps a chaotic ping pong tournament where Todd dominated and Len treated his paddle like a 60-degree wedge, nearly taking out the ceiling. Chris airs his grievances in a new "Marketplace Controversy" involving a pair of "brand new" shorts that turned out to be DIY cut-off pants. Plus, the guys discuss the start of winter simulator season, controversial talk about the addition of the "Belfast Open", and share thoughts on Tiger and Charlie Woods. Episode Highlights:
| |||
| Episode 62: Featuring - Hunter Burke | 21 Nov 2025 | 01:36:37 | |
The boys take Island Green & Beyond on the road again, this time recording right inside the Belvedere Golf Club simulator bay. The vibes are high, the taps are flowing, and the chirps are elite. Episode 62 features an awesome sit-down with one of PEI’s brightest young athletes, Hunter Burke, fresh off his run at the Notah Begay World Junior Championship. Hunter talks pressure, putting, playing with Tony Finau’s son, and what it’s like dropping a par four hole-in-one (as your first). The guys swap stories about birthday weeks, inversion tables, photography chaos, and how juniors today somehow handle pressure better than grown men. A fun mix of golf, laughs, life, and one seriously impressive young talent. | |||
| Episode 61: Halloween Chaos & Blue Jays Heartbreak | 03 Nov 2025 | 01:47:35 | |
Episode 61 dives hard into the “Beyond” part of Island Green & Beyond. The boys set up shop in Todd’s legendary basement: From there it’s pure chaos in the best way possible. They swap stories about daylight savings confusion (including parents with two watches and clocks set 20 minutes fast), memory hacks from Jim Kwik, and how brain tricks might actually help you remember names in your weekend foursome. Then it’s all-in on PEI Halloween drama: trick-or-treating getting moved for weather, being the “big chocolate bar house,” potato and apple handouts, UNICEF money mysteriously “compounding,” and kids running complex candy-arbitrage routes across counties. Eventually, they stumble back toward sports with a cathartic breakdown of the Blue Jays–Dodgers World Series: superstition, blown leads, wild moments, payroll rants, and the eternal debate of loyalty vs ring-chasing. There’s even a quick nod to King of the Hill at Glasgow to remind everyone this is still technically a golf podcast. Grab a Coffee Crisp, steal a Reese’s from the kids’ bag, and come hang in the basement. | |||

Len digs up Todd’s secret rap past (yes, Atlantic & Capital was real), then we dive into Jays mania, Todd’s wild elevator run-in at the playoffs, and his VIP Ryder Cup adventure that somehow involved Trump, fake lanyards, and “I’m an 01” security clearance. We wrap up with the Cavendish Cup victory recap, golf season debates, and a few classic Island chirps along the way. Grab a beer, hit play, and enjoy a laugh with the Island Green crew. | |||
| Episode 59: Grips, Trips & The Atlantic Cup Battle | 24 Sep 2025 | 01:38:41 | |
We’re back in the kitchen and back on track after last week’s audio hiccup (fired the whole audio staff… they’re working for Kimmel now). This one’s packed: • Tales of regripping gone wrong, fat grips vs skinny grips, and a little mix-up you won’t believe. • Chris’ Whistler adventure - golf at Nicklaus North, Big Sky, and a zipline that nearly had him passed out mid-air. • Inside the Atlantic Cup at Osprey Ridge - PEI’s sharp quarter-zips, top competition, wild formats, and Michael Kiley’s coming-out party against some of the region’s best. • The eternal debate: how many golf balls do you carry, when do you swap one out, and does anyone actually mark them the same way every time? • Ryder Cup hype - Todd’s heading to Bethpage, and we dig into what makes this event unlike anything else in golf. • Plus: the PEI men’s senior baseball team winning nationals, Belvedere’s lifetime membership draw, and the latest Currie Controversy It’s golf, stories, laughs, and a little Island flavour - exactly what you expect from Island Green & Beyond. | |||
| Episode 58: Around the Kitchen Table | 12 Sep 2025 | 01:18:07 | |

He's written "A Gentleman's Game" which was turned into a movie, one of Lens' favorite books "Paper Tiger", as well as Best Selling books "A Course Called Ireland", "A Course Called Scotland", and his most recent book which was just released in May, "A Course Called America". BK and Nick take over the podcast for the week as Len wasn't available for the recording and the boys discuss the Nova Scotia and NB Amateur championships, the Stanley Cup Finals and the big PGA Atlantic Zone Championship. Obviously the picks are in for The Open as well which you'll have to check out - it's even better when you hear them after the event is done. | |||
