About this episode

Matt Walsh discusses his year-long experience playing golf left-handed and shares various anecdotes related to golf and personal stories.

Veep's Matt Walsh — two-time Emmy nominee and co-founder of Upright Citizens Brigade — joins Brian, Cooper, and Kenny to talk golf, Chicago, and the bookie who went on every Walsh family vacation. Matt breaks down his year-long experiment switching to left-handed golf (spoiler: he still putts lefty), why he thinks 13-hole courses are the future, and what Golf Digest's attempted makeover actually helped. Plus: Matt corroborates Brian's story of Tim Simons' intensity on the golf course, Kenny shares the wild story of Vladimir Putin stealing Robert Kraft's Super Bowl ring, and Cooper gets slammed for his shirt selection.
