When Austin Turner hit the pro circuit, he was speculated to be one of the best left handed players the game had seen since Devan Owens. When an unexpected injury put him in a tough position he seemingly disappeared from the scene for a couple years. In 2021 he's made a comeback and is sporting a much healthier body and mind. 

In a world where most of the best players are starting to back away from playing every week, Andrew Presnell is busier than ever and is having the time of his life doing it. As someone who also left a good job to hit the road for disc golf, I genuinely enjoyed hearing his own tale of throwing caution to the wind and molding his life around the thing he loves most. PS - This was a Zoom interview and we had a little issue with audio leveling. Apologies in advance about the sound quality.

I have always looked up to Sarah for committing to the forehand dominant play style for so long, something that's not easy to do. I had little knowledge of who she was beyond being a major champion, so this conversation was very much me asking questions out of sheer curiosity. Enjoy!

One of my best friends, Walter Faro, sits down with me to turn the tables and hear my story that lead to me to where I am in the disc golf world today. It's been a long, winding road, but I'm so grateful to be where I am in this life.  To support the show: patreon.com/theflightdiary

Chandler Fry sits down with me to talk about his early days as a junior disc golfer and his journey to making the game his career. 

I was lucky enough to get connected with Joel through a mutual friend in Nashville, TN and I'm so glad I did. Joel has an incredible passion for the flying disc and has so many stories from his years competing in freestyle events all over the country. He is a 2020 inductee of the FPA Hall of Fame and a lover of all disc sports. Click here to view his bio on the FPA website. 

The newest PDGA member to win a National Tour event sits down to talk about his journey to becoming a professional disc golfer, and how  regrets from his basketball days drive him to not take this new opportunity for granted. 

Andrew Zimmern is a four-time James Beard award-winning TV personality, chef, writer, teacher, social justice advocate, and an enormous fan of everything disc golf. He claims the sport has saved his life, and when I sat with him in his Minneapolis office, he explained how.
