Phil Mickelson Podcasts

Most podcast coverage of Phil Mickelson folds him into golf’s wider arguments: Augusta, LIV, rivalries and whatever controversy is moving through the sport that week. Truly focused episodes are scarce. The useful divide is between golf shows that treat him as part of the news cycle and the occasional episode that approaches him through a relationship or a more playful premise.

Augusta, LIV and the crowded leaderboard

Birdies & Bourbon gives Mickelson the full barstool-golf treatment. The show is fast, opinionated and happy to let tournament analysis wander through food, bourbon and running jokes. That looseness shapes both Live from Augusta!! | Masters 2026 Preview Show | Cal's Champions Dinner Menu | Phil Mickelson News and Cal's Week in Augusta Recap | Rory Wins Back to Back Masters | LIV Golf News | Phil Mickelson | Cameron Young | Scottie Scheffler. In each case he shares the billing with several other attractions. Come here for lively golf-week conversation, not a patient single-subject portrait.

Drop Zone - GOLF Podcast is the sharper choice when the attraction is conflict. Its panel style mixes reporting, skepticism and golf-insider fluency, while still leaving room for jokes and digressions. LIV's Latest Moves, Predicting Tiger, Phil Mickelson's Beef places Mickelson inside a larger professional-golf argument and makes the tension itself the hook. The story gets debated rather than merely recapped here, making this the best place to begin.

Two departures from standard golf talk

The Forward offers the most clearly personal angle. Billy Walters Talks Sports Betting, Jail & His Relationship with Phil Mickelson centers a named guest and a defined relationship, with sports betting and jail also forming part of the conversation. It is a more specific proposition than the tournament roundups: start here if the relationship is what interests you.

Shoot Your Shot is the wildcard. Pillow Talk with Phil Mickelson signals a looser, comic route into the subject, far removed from leaderboard analysis or tour politics. It is the appealing detour for anyone who has already heard enough solemn discussion of professional golf.

Where Mickelson is mostly part of the scenery

Several knowledgeable golf shows mention Mickelson without making him the announced subject. Their value lies in the surrounding conversation, but listeners seeking sustained treatment should temper expectations.

The Good-Good Golf Podcast brings an informed, dry panel voice to broad discussions such as Ep 139: The Masters and Ep 142: LIV, Women and Watches.... Mickelson belongs to that wider world of tournaments, money and golf politics; neither episode promises to stay with him.

The Shotgun Start uses comedy as part of its analysis, moving quickly between serious golf points, running bits and tour minutiae. Its Mickelson mentions sit within larger episodes including The latest on LIV Golf: Will Saudi PIF continue funding after 2026? and Masters broadcast critiques, PGA Tour vs. Majors, and Harbour Town as a detox. Choose it for the wider ecosystem and the banter, rather than for a dedicated Mickelson episode.

The bunkered Golf Podcast takes a similarly expansive route, though with a Scottish-inflected panel style and plenty of everyday tangents. Is this finally the end for LIV Golf? gives the clearest indication of the territory in which Mickelson comes up. Again, the argument is bigger than one player.
