Have you ever wondered why the golf course is one of the happiest places on earth? In this episode, we chat with the effervescent Jarod DeAnda, the voice of Formula Drift, who sheds light on the invincible good vibes of golf. From his charming life in Riverside, California, to the welcoming spirit of his local country club, Jarod shares how this sport transcends skill levels and unites people with its infectious energy. We also dive into the role branding and high spirits play in making golf experiences unforgettable, with a nod to collaborations that fuel his passions.
But that's not all—our adventures continue with a day spent upgrading trucks and hitting the greens with our buddy T-bit, aka T-bone. We revisit the excitement of a golf tournament at Wildhorse and even touch on the bittersweet news about Primm closing to possibly becoming a spaceport. Nostalgia meets celebration as we cheer on Xander's stellar performance and reflect on a challenging round at The Farms in Rancho Santa Fe. These stories vividly show how our love for golf, cars, and travel intertwines so seamlessly.
The episode wraps up with Jarod taking us through his storied career in motorsport announcing, from the fast-paced world of Formula Drift to sharing greens with skateboarding legend Bucky Lasek. We explore how skateboard culture integrates with golf and laugh over our shared enthusiasm for cars, video games, and memorable travels.
