Okay, I scheduled the podcast for the wrong day! My bad 😂 hope you enjoy the Thursday treat!!! (Guy)
P45 for you son
Thanks buddy. I gotta let it slide my great grandpa was guy and my dads middle name is after him. So you get the benefit of the doubt
Yes! Just finished Tuesday’s podcast. Glad I don’t have to wait for this one! Nice surprise
Bonus
Muppet 😂
I spent my childhood playing golf and watching Top Gear never did I imagine these two worlds would collide, I love this
Enjoy!
100% the same here in America.
Me too! This is the best thing in youtube right now
Top Gear had that one episode where they went golfing. They only p[played a couple holes and it was pretty not good golf being played.

I love Richard Hammond. He'd be awesome to golf with, unless he's driving the cart. You'd be upside down in a fiery crash by the second hole. Edit-wow, he actually says this at 40:50
Especially considering its most likely to be electric
You don’t even know how happy this made me. I’ve been a massive fan of Top Gear, The Grand Tour, and Rick Shiels. Amazing!
I love Rick but I wanna say I'm always so impressed with Guy on this podcast. He adds so much and is so good at moving this show along, adding interesting insights, asking questions in the perfect way, and summarizing things quickly. He just makes doing this show look so easy but he's so smart and good at it, it goes unnoticed how hard it is until you watch a different show with someone who isn't as good.
It was bloody hilarious watching you guys record this, buzzing to see both of our main channel videos published soon 😬
The intro with Hammond just ended me, actually crying with laughter 😂
Grew up on Top Gear and the lads…I found Rick (and yourself, Guy) a few months back and it really brought forward inspiration to play golf as I’ve always wanted to do, and I am now getting into the sport as a young adult. What a great collaboration of personalities. Much love :)
this was EPIC id love to see a scramble with Rick Shields and Richard Hammond vs Peter Finch and Our boy from "Bad Golf". i think the comedy would fly regardless
As someone who’s seen literally EVERY SINGLE episode and special of both Top Gear & Grand Tour . . . This is my FAVORITE podcast so far!! I play golf every day. But I started in my mid 30’s. Cars however, have been a love of mine since I was a child! Love this!! Keep it coming!! Thanks Rick and Guy!
This is like when two of my friends groups who have nothing in common finally meet. And it turns into a huge party. Getting the king of crashes to swing a club and not comedically is amazing! Cheers from America and sorry we threw rocks at your car when you were in Alabama.
Tbf fair they rot off lightly 😆
Love this!! Glad you realised it today rather than tomorrow as it’s brighten up my day!!
My favorite Golf TH-camr and my favorite car show collide? This is quite the treat, thank you!
Honestly, when he said in one of the latest Grand Tour specials that he's started playing golf I dropped my jaw. He'd spent years saying he hates golfers, so now my love of cars and my love of golf have finally merged perfectly.
I'm running out of ways to say great show, and interview. Your guests are so cool. Have watched Top Gear and Grand Tour for years. Just so cool. Thanks Rick and Guy
Richard Hammond makes me so happy. Amazing guest
I cannot stop myself grinning at any of the TG/GT Trio 😊
Just started playing golf myself 8 weeks ago as a 28 year old. Cool to see how Richard has the same findings as I had. And yes golf is hard, but that makes it fun. Still super proud of my 46 handicap at the moment, already down from 54
Good on ya bud, keep it going
54? Stop playing with a ping pong ball
@@davidcleminson600 54 is the starting handicap when you start playing golf in my country
Superb mate, I'm also getting back into golf at the age of 27. I played fairy regularly from the age of about 5 until 15 but mostly stopped when my parents split up. I'm finally getting back into it 12 years later.
You'll definitely get better with time, and don't worry too much about handicap, just have fun and practice when you can.
My car cost less than my golfing set up... but then they both cost less (combined) than my motorcycles 😆👍 Enjoyed that podcast, Hammonds a legend 👌
I started playing golf 2 years ago when i turned 40. Never to old to take up such a difficult amazing sport . Great podcast
What an absolute joy to watch. Fantastic episode chaps!
The sinking chair along with the sweating brow. So good!
OMG!!!! This cannot be happening! This is the greatest thing ever. Hammond from Top Gear and GT, talking to Rick and Guy about golf!!! the best yet. Cheers guys!
This is the podcast I didn't know I needed, and now I'm sad I didn't get it sooner. But also gloriously happy.
Having this as a surprise is brilliant, love it.
Great to have Richard on... great energy and fun, not convinced around the discussion on fitting, the swing for me is more fundamental than the fitting of clubs
I said that for years. Quite happy with my off the shelf pings, playing to about 10 consistently for ages... Then I got fit haha
I’ve seen every episode of top gear/the grand tour. That group of 3 are my favorite guys on TV. This was an awesome podcast
Love the comment about changing your shoes in the car park. I was over from NZ a few months ago and was playing at a posh northern course when this actually happened to me. A guy had walked past and turned around to come back and "ask" me to go to the locker room to put my shoes on!
A great watch, Richard was incredibly funny. Nice One!!!
As a huge fan of Top Gear and a lot of Richard's other work, having him on here is like two universes colliding. VERY COOL CONTENT.
Loved this video guys .. gotta love Richard aka "Hamster" nothing better than when 2 of my favourite things come together... car's and golf . Great job Rick and Guy .. you gotta have Richard on as a regular. Looking forward to the content 😉🔥
Great podcast guys ❤️👍 Superb to see Hammond on there 🍾👍
Brilliant! Love that Hammond decided to give golf a go.
This is the best show I have ever seen!
I've never been more excited for a cast in my life
Best podcast so far! Loved it
I fear I might catch golf but i can't resist watching
Thanks Rick, made Thursday much more enjoyable 👍
Absolutely awesome podcast
What a fantastic guest! Would love to see him back on the channel going deeper in conversation about golf and cars!
Early release!! What a treat, cheers from Oz 🇦🇺🇦🇺
this is wiiiiild! So happy for you guys
Best podcast you guys have done in my opinion
“Friday trreeeaaaatt”… on a Thursday 😂 not complaining though!
That was the fastest 43 mins. Great show!
love the podcast Richard Hammond is amazing !!
I just jumped through the whole appartement to the living room, when I saw the notification and turned the tv on. life is good!
Love Richard and the rest of the boys.....you guys too! Great interview! Golf isn't just for the elite.....it is for everyone! Have fun!! Idea...Drive a golf ball VS. Supercar.......at what point do they equal out?! 100 yards....225 yards? And play around of golf too..... :) Someone who has thought about the issue of people moving around in vehicles.....refreshing!!
This was absolutely incredible. I didnt think it could get much better after the course designer last week, but DAMN!!!!
My two worlds colliding, literally. Been re-watching top gear for the past week. Definitely did not expect this to pop up on my recommended.
So thanks it's not Friday yet, so I have to work one more day! BTW great Podcast one of my favoirits!
I’m now eagerly awaiting the new TH-cam channel, ‘Hamster Golf-The Journey’, a fully documented evolution, from absolute beginner to maybe the next big thing in TH-cam golf..?! Come on Richard, set it up, I’ll subscribe and see you on the course! Get May and Jezza involved, funniest course vlog …’In the world’ 🤣💪🏻
This was a wildly entertaining podcast. Funny how different it is from the course architecture podcast but both were so interesting and entertaining. You guys are killing it!
Nearly in the clubhouse, I'll be in within the month i believe! First time watching the podcast vs listening. Great show guys, thank you for all the content and getting Richard Hammond on was awesome! I've been a long time fan of top gear and grand tour so this was the perfect pairing for me! (Guy, you've got to stop touching the mic!)
Thanks again for all that you do!
I really needed this today :))
Great guest and looking forward to seeing his swing and progress
OMG I'm 1min to this and can't believe this is even possible. Super excited. Best of both worlds
This conversation during a round of golf would be 🔥
I want to see Hamster play
It’s a Thursday treat! Even better.
How does this channel only have 178K subscribers?! I mean, it hasn't been on for a huge amount of time, but I'm pretty surprised at that. If you're listening, and haven't subscribed, hit the button already!
Worlds colliding. Love Hammond
Love the continual analogy ping pong!
Love your work boys.
Thank you so much 😀
Best interview to date!
The best part about this "Friday treat" podcast it's that it's being released on a Thursday
Excellent Thursday treat chaps!
My golf clubs fit in the boot of my VW Golf GTI mk7! I don't have to takey driver out of anything. All my clubs are standard length. To get it in, I have to stick the head of the driver in first and then squeeze/roll the bottom of the bag in. It's a tight fit, but it does fit.
The crossover episode I never knew I needed.
Genius. Golf and cars together ?? If you blokes had been drinking beer as well you’d have created the Holy Trinity of podcast topics. Unbeatable.
I love all 3 of them. But 'Hamstah' is awesome and I've always enjoyed whatever he does.
Perfect episode to start thinking an important golf decision. What car should I drive to the club! I pick btwn my 1998 BMW Z3 or 2020 Rubicon Gladiator. Trucks are cool in the South and both convertibles.
Love the fast car analogy compared to golf equipment. Bang on.
As an American, who loves Rick Shiels, this is the first podcast you've done that means little to me. Never even heard of Richard Hammond. Isn't it funny how we can be so connected across the pond on many things and so disconnected on others.
British Top Gear (the older ones that Hammond is in) are great TV.
@@dereckguilfoyle1219 To be specific, the British Top Gear with Clarkson, Hammond and May. To be fair, it did get a bit tired and repetitious near the end, but it was a great show.
Ringing a bell in a yacht club to buy everyone a drink is pretty international. Not sure how far back it goes, but I knew about it since I've been sailboat racing.
I was like wait a second....It's Friday? I was very close to cancelling some meetings in my calendar LOL I live my life based on Rick's upload dates.
Awesome episode!
Friday special on a Thursday, love them deal 😃
Love Hammond great guest to have
Great episode 👍👍💕
This was awesome. :) legends
would be great to see updates every 4-6 weeks of richard's game
Awesome stuff! there is a serious idea there for a segment 'Teaching Celebs'... get onto it! thanks guys
I think anyone who has openly mocked golf, only to find themselves on the fairway, cursing themselves at 7:30 in morning every Saturday in their 30s can relate to Richard. I had this same experience this summer. Never thought I would like it. I said "What makes you think I would like this?"
A few months later, and dread the coming of winter for yet another reason. Baseball is done, driving anywhere is a chore, and now I can't go out on a Saturday morning and be frustrated as I try to get really good at something new for the first time in almost fifteen years. Great episode, and beyond wild to see Richard Hammond on the show. Just don't get into the cart with him. He has a bit of a record behind the wheel.
Bagged a whale with this one Rick! Hammond is arguably the biggest name in presenting (in the U.K. for sure). It has been really exciting to watch your channel, and reputation, grow over the last ten years - now to the point that really famous people know you as someone important in the world of golf. Now, If you can just get Clarkson and May, then you will have quite the coup.
Thank god another podcast.
Best guest yet !!!
friday special on a thursday love to see it
On the car subject: Yes, definitely see a lot of fancy cars at golf courses, even in a country like Finland where the average car age is literally twice that of UK (so the AVERAGE car on the road here is about a 2006-2007). I do get the occasional look rolling in on a pretty ratty 1991 Ford Sierra... Though I've also met a fair few peeps who have complimented me on it, saying that they used to love their old Sierras and that it's good to see someone still keeping them on the roads. =)
Great podcast
Love Richard Hammond and the podcast would love to do a video with you
Hi Rick and Guy. Love the podcast. It’s nice to have a genuine big uk production!
Over the last few you discussed the impact of LIV events and recently the TGL simulation thing which sounds a bit like something created because the biggest brand pull can barely walk 18 holes anymore.
Do you think there would be a market for 6hole match play leagues? Teams of 6, 3x men and 3x women, playing at home clubs around the world on their respective tours followed by an American style world play off system.
Each event would only take around 3 hrs and would create support for teams around the world which would be a major advertising pull.
We need a scramble with Richard
should have called it The Grand PGA Tour instead of tee gear lol but loved this podcast
Give this man a job!
We need more Richard
Used to have a RallyeGolf… A classification series Golf G60 syncro designed to become Wold Championship winner, hand made by VW Motorsport, but obviously FIA didn’t like the idea of a supercharger, but opted out for turbos.
Up to date it was the best handling car I ever have had, but you need to give gass, cause otherwise it was the regular front engine understeering block of steel, which all of a sudden changed out to become Beetle, oversteering chimera of the era. The porblem in that was the syncro center diff, whith the notorious lag in it.
Hammond is a true Legend.
I just subscribed. I really enjoyed the podcast and the drivetribe video as well! Thanks fellas!
BW should name a car the Fart and they can have a STI version too. It's a type of wind as well.
Richard Hammond was recording his show at aintree golf centre last week,
The 2nd full round of golf I played I was told the rule about a hole in 1 (the buying a round). So, I'm from California, this has definitely jumped the pond, and made its way to other end of the continent. I was 9 at the time, so I was actually terrified of making a hole in 1 for years lol!
When you go golfing and you see a golf cart on its side and on fire you will know Richard Hammond is close by.
