    Show has run its course
    Used to enjoy the show. Now it's just stale and the guys are no longer relatable. Theyve become a victim of their own success. All the content is the same. Dan was a good addition and now he's gone. Too many adds. Made the decision to stop listening.
  • No More Frankie Interviews
    Interviews - No more Frankie
    Listening to the Nico interview just confirms for me that Frankie does not add to the interview. He repeats the same thing he says on the podcast portion and, most annoyingly, talks more than the interviewee. It’s obnoxious. Otherwise, I enjoy the podcast, it’s a must listen twice a week.

    Fore Play
    Just no juice with the show anymore. The podcast golf content is non existent.

    Meh
    Tough listen for the Kauai episode… Francis addition added a star cause he’s the only one who knows how to talk like an adult and riff
  • AB0719
    No research and down right embarrassing
    These guys do little to know research and come off as uneducated and low effort. Tom kim becoming the “international guy” in the next presidents cup??? are you stupid? Saying this presidents cup was a success… is that serious? Just down right embarrassing and never listening again.

    Offensive amount of ads
    Stop being so greedy with the incredible amount of ads. I’ve noticed not just this barstool podcast but all Barstool podcasts have way too many ad breaks. It’s ridiculous. Have so decorum. Money hungry and distasteful!
  • pukerat
    Enjoy the show, too many ads
    Longtime listener since 2018 but the ads are out of control now. Really enjoy the show and everyone on it but too many ad breaks and then half the show is an ad within itself.

    Ruining golf one pod at a time
    The biggest losers in golf. You’d have to be a moron to enjoy these idiots. Frankie might be the dumbest adult human being in America……if it wasn’t for filming Pizza reviews he’d be a bus boy right now. If you gave frankie a blank map of the US, I don't think he could fill out half of it. He's a moron. His islander videos are unbearable

    juvenile
    high school locker room profanity gets tiresome
  • Seaberg08
    So many ads
    A crazy amount of long adds
  • seds15
    Too many ads
    I’ve listened to this show for years but it’s hard to keep listening when there’s 2 ads within the first 5 minutes of a show. They’ll be in the middle of a conversation and cut to an ad. Without Danny rap no reason to keep listening to this golf podcast with very little golf talk.
  • Too many commercials1
    Too many commercials
    I am 15 min into the latest episode and there have been 3 commercials while they talk about life being a simulation.
  • RU2004
    Too many ads
    Great podcast but the amount of commercials is completely out of control. They also dive into non golf related topics way too much.
  • CaptainChaz
    Annoying, self-indulgent, and half ads
    Annoying group. Always off topic and rambling about themselves. Don’t care. Also too many ads
  • CoachKris2323
    Way too many ads
    Decided to give the show a chance, one episode in and i really enjoyed it but will not be listening again because of the insane amount of ads
  • WaywardKid
    Meh
    How many times do we have to hear? One guy say “”it’s funny that you said that” She would be better if that guy was absent
  • Valvane Jim
    Wonders Never Cease
    Riggs turning out to be an untalented, unlikeable offspring of wealth was… the most predictable outcome
  • Chris8708
    Golf golf golf
    Love the show but please stick with golf. If i wanted to listen to 30 minutes of hockey I’d tune into spittin chiclets
  • @Porkchop971
    Time stamps please!
    I enjoy the show and having time stamps would help get to what I want to listen to most! Thanks boys!
  • Dickhole content
    Sick masters episode
    Awful
  • culd cots
    Show took a nose dive
    Show got miles worse when lurch left. Used to be great now it’s a none listen
  • Stick2Golf…
    Too much hockey
    This has the potential to be a really good podcast, but I can barely get through any of their episodes without them talking about hockey, more specifically the Islanders. If I cared about hockey I’d listen to a hockey podcast. It would be fine they brought it up every few episodes or so, but I feel like they lead with it now! Complete trash move.
  • Nick_F11
    Not Great
    Used to be decent, hated when Lurch left. When they don’t have an interview all the talk about is their golf games and the videos they have for the Foreplay YouTube page. Not a lot of golf talk beyond that. Other golf podcasts provide much more insight to the current golf landscape. When they do talk about current golf events it seems like they have the same info I can get from following a few golf writers on Twitter/X. No real reporting done.
  • Jbro109
    Timecodes
    Would it be possible to have the timecode in the episode description? The Youtube version has them, but not the podcast version

    My favorite podcast
    My favorite podcast: Fore play. Picked them up around the masters of this year, I’ve listened to every single episode since, spend a ridiculous amount of time of following them on Twitter, on YouTube, etc. When the podcast drops it’s always the best part of my week. I appreciate you guys so much and I’m so excited to get to keep following you guys for the foreseeable future. You guys better be going to Pinehurst US Open 2024, really hoping to get to say hi then. But, for people reading, give them a try, it becomes such a fun fixture of your life, to have a routine of listening to foreplay every Tuesday and Thursday, they do a great job of making you feel included in the process and invested in listening to each and every episode. The inside jokes you pick up on, the universe of barstool that you’d never find (unless you’re a barstool fan I guess), their commentary on golf events, their interviews with the best players in golf, their love of Tiger Woods really creates this perfect bubble for a golf lover, or really the listener in general. Although I do understand that people say that they are not as serious as NLU or the fried egg (I listen to them both as well, great podcasts, try out NLU’s Lee Trevino episode that just came out), they’re not trying to be that serious, it’s more about 4 golf bros (well, Danny’s a golf journalist) providing commentary and discussion in both a comedic and accessible manner, breaking down the barriers of what it means to be a golf fan. Anyways, thank you guys if you happen to be reading, and I need to stop spending so much time on twitter sticking up for you guys against the LIV bots, it’s pointless, they’ll never give up. The LIV bots are infinite in determination. And don’t forget about Pinehurst, how about you guys just go book that right now. And Riggs write the letter for Fore play tracker.
  • BrianLapeGolf
    Must listen
    These morons talk about everything but golf and somehow it’s can’t miss entertainment
  • ehdorr
    Min Woo Lee
    These guys talk about everything but golf. Pod gets carried by guests. Ryder cup coming up and in the midst of the FedEx cup and these guys would rather talk about who jack harlows dated. Frankie and Trent are entertaining but Dan and Riggs can sugma. Let’s stick to the golf - since this is a golf podcast, right?
  • Randy Charlson
    Great POD! Technical tip below (for Riggs)
    Set the Release on the compressor/limiter on Riggs’ microphone to the FASTEST setting. This will be a game changer for his audio quality.
  • Awful gameuknow
    Love barstool
    Nice kickback , shoot the junk about golf, podcast. Never been a Riggs fan though blah dude is a 14 handicap claiming to be a 5
  • skasting
    PGA tour wokesters
    These guys are ok with the tour screwing over 9/11 families… gutter trash

    Amazing Korn Ferry Broadcast
    Loved Sunday broadcast - u guys did a great job, exciting and fun - I can’t wait for next Barstool Korn Ferry event!
  • CJaenke
    Love Y’all’s Stuff
    Was about to post a comment about how much I love the most recent episode and realized I never sent the one below. The comment below is from months ago but I’m still as big of a fan as before and I thank you boys for everything you put out. Hit it Hard I start every Tuesday and Thursday with this band of merry hooligans. I’ve been listening since the beginning and have even had the pleasure of calling into the Pod once. Riggs will lead you through a plethora of topics. Whether it’s Lurch’s stomach problems, Frankie’s astonishment of space, or Trent’s cameos on The Bachelor, you will love these boys. For a golf podcast the talk surprisingly little about golf but you won’t notice the time fly by. Danny Rap has been a pleasant addition to the group with great insight into the world of golf. If you have the time you should even read his Monday Morning Rap. So sit down and have a truly hard seltzer and have a grand time with the Foreplay Boys. Hit it hard.
  • What whaaaat
    Has potential if they get back to being authentic
    Used to be avid listener. Really missing lurch. Riggs decision to ignore his skill level and constantly brag about his hdcp (which is completely inaccurate) has driven me away. Barstool was built on being real and authentic and show has gotten away from that. Supposed to be common man sports.
  • Charlie wiesss
    Love this episode
    Best foreplay pod yet!
  • Chrisbaseball12
    Danny Rap
    Can you clear your throat for the love of god?
  • Steven sobieraj
    Just started listening
    What’s up with all the ads? And how come Riggs hasn’t been on PMT?
  • Dmart88
    Fan since day one
    Been a fan since day one. Really enjoy the pod, great conversations like sitting around with buddies talking, getting distracted, and then back on topic. Love it. Dan is a great addition to the squad. Only thing I notice with Dan is he wheezes into the mic after a long sentence, and is distracting.
  • mr interval
    Too many “like” “it’s like”
    Neither one of you can stop saying "like" and "it's like" every other word. Completely annoying. You speak like teenage girls. Work on your communication skills.
  • Johnsonsniffer
    Ads
    The amount of advertisement breaks are absolutely absurd
  • bwhel
    Love the pod but…
    LOVE the show. Once the Riggs learns to take the mic out of his mouth and the ad reads stick to 30 seconds to a minute, not 15 minutes I’ll be back. Sitting in my office with AirPods in and my ears get raped every time Riggs says any word with a P or B. Made the show extremely unlistenable. Shame on the producers and Trent, Frankie, Dan for not mentioning this.
  • firebrd10tmm
    Insufferable
    If you want to hear immature 1st graders interview big names in golf than this is for you. Frankie might be the most insufferable podcaster in the world.
  • Anders Lee 27
    Frankie Got to Go
    I’m out until Frankie is gone and y’all bring back Lurch
  • Saaj1993
    RIGGS LEARN HOW TO SPEAK
    Riggs voice is so painful to listen to constantly changing pitches and literally sounding like nails on a chalkboard. Truly insane to host a podcast when you sound like that
  • Kendall530
    f bombs every 5 seconds
    Listened to it for 2 min and heard about 100 F- bombs. Sloppy podcast
  • youbetchaya
    Thanks
    Hey just give us a heads up when your going to just talk about hockey for the majority of the time thanks
  • akg923
    Riggs can’t talk in a mic
    Why is his audio always so brutal. Dude needs to figure out how to keep audio levels consistent
  • Tanks Outdoors
    Dance with who brought you
    Still a good podcast but starting to get a little hard to listen to sometimes. I like Dan but I feel like it makes a weird dynamic with Riggs, who went from the #1 golfer in the group to #3 now that Frankie has been grinding. I also think having Lurch on help cancelled out some of Riggs’s pretentiousness and make it more enjoyable for the average guy. All in all still a good listen, Trent is still the man and Frankie has earned my respect with how hard he’s worked on Trent and himself. Just wish they would talk a little more about golf and quit acting like they are better than the fans.
  • Bobsled Overtime
    Too much hockey talk
    These Yankees talk about hockey way too much for a golf podcast. Not everyone cares about hockey. The golf talk is ok.
  • Bossman42104
    Frankie
    Frankie is unbearable
  • colonol sanders
    It’s a Seinfeld podcast
    Read title above, long time listener. This pod used to be much better. Now I have to skip through 30 min of hockey talk or Seinfeld esque episodes about nothing, except the only difference is Seinfeld is actually funny. I just want to hear about golf, but this show gives me very little of that. Having Dan on makes things better. Just talk more about golf, that’s why I tune in. I think their order of interests is: 1) advertisements 2) sell merch 3) talking about their travel logistics 4) talking about a video they made 5) talking about how much work it is to make videos 6) podcasting about golf
