Quiet Please! With Mel and Kira

Kira and a travel-worn Mel catch up as Kira nears motherhood and is fully in nesting mode. Mel recaps working Golf Channel’s LPGA coverage of the Lotte Championship and Jeeno’s fourth win of the year, plus a hit take on the LPGA’s should fix Aon Risk Reward program. They celebrate Tom Kim winning Asian Games gold, laugh at Matt Fitzpatrick’s mystery congratulatory texter, and shout out Austin Smotherman’s first PGA Tour win. There’s also a deep discussion on former club outfits. (Night clubs, not golf clubs)

Mel’s voice is hanging by a thread as she and Kira unpack the pressure-packed finish to the President’s Cup and why the Americans are just so good at singles. Mel is back at work with the LPGA, and Kira and Mel get into the week in Arkansas and the ongoing marketing struggles the LPGA faces. They also dig into the promise of WTGL, did the USA WAGS have Birkins (an investigative report), and Kira’s home stretch as she awaits Baby’s arrival.

Mel’s voice returns for just long enough to get through a “proper Jersey wedding” and today’s pod. Mel and Kira review the President’s Cup rosters, reflect on the Solheim Cup TV ratings and the brutal LPGA end-of-season travel schedule. Kira shushes unsolicited pregnancy comments, among many (many) other things.

A hoarse Mel returns to real life after vice-captaining the winning Solheim Cup team, and Kira shares the DM (and voice memo) reactions she received celebrating the victory. They do a deep-dive recap on everything from pairings strategy to green speeds to gala outfits to the beers on the bus and set the record straight on all the buzzy social media stories. Also, they discuss how the team dealt with online criticism during the tournament, Jennifer Kupcho’s crazy putting, and what is it with Europeans and Sweet Caroline?

It’s Solheim Cup week, and Mel and Kira are joined by Anna Nordqvist to fit in a preview before the teams head to the Netherlands. Anna gives a behind the scenes look at her captaincy, her retirement, and her thoughts on the European squad. Also, Mel prepares to be a Vice Captain, recaps playing with Paige Spiranac for her YouTube series, and Kira’s name-change turns into identity theft.
