PodCast Interview with John Feinstein

Jay Busbee over at The Devil Ball blog posted up a pretty good podcast interview with John Feinstein.

For those who don’t know about John, he is an amazing sportswriter who’s written some of the best golf books out there. I’m currently reading ā€œA Good Walk Spoiled: Days and Nights on the PGA Tourā€ and I am in awe at how well he tells a golf story. Some of it is edge of your seat stuff, where John keeps you hanging on every word. I made a comment to an associate of mineĀ  yesterday that ā€œIt feels like I’m reading a good fantasy novel.ā€ If you’re not a fantasy buff, than replace with your favorite genre of books.

The point is, it’s not your every day ā€œgolf bookā€ where a bunch of players are being interviewed by the author, it’s a series of great short stories with a fair amount of golf history included in them. I have a sneaky suspicion this is going to be this year’s Orlando Golf Blogger Book of the year.

But.. I digress, here’s the link to the podcast.

John Feinstein has a new book ā€œAre You Kidding Me?: The Story of Rocco Mediate’s Extraordinary Battle with Tiger Woods at the US Openā€ that was released on May 18th of this year and he discusses it with Jay on the podcast.
