On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

Send us a text Ever wondered how the pros prepare for a tournament? In this special live panel discussion, we go deep with five DGPT professionals as they reveal their personal strategies for tournament success at the Cascade Challenge. Holland Handley, Eric Oakley, Casey White, James Proctor, and Robert Burridge share their approaches to everything from physical recovery between events to mental preparation for technical wooded courses. Their insights expose the reality of life on tour – the grind of travel, the decisions about practice intensity, and the personalized routines that help them perform at their peak. The conversation takes fascinating turns as the pros discuss course management philosophy, with a particularly illuminating exchange about playing to your strengths rather than forcing textbook shots. "Boring golf is scoring golf," Holland notes, emphasizing the value of consistency over flashy play. Meanwhile, James reveals his surprisingly minimalist practice approach: "When I can step away from disc golf and do some other things unrelated to the sport, I think that helps me stay balanced." The panel also dives into disc selection strategy, putting techniques, mental game approaches, and even shares stories about their most treasured lost discs. Whether you're a competitive player looking to improve your tournament game or simply fascinated by the inner workings of professional disc golf, this episode offers rare insight into the minds of those competing at the highest level of the sport.

Send us a text What if the secret to elevating your disc golf game isn't about physical technique at all, but rather mastering what happens between your ears? Joel Turner, renowned mental performance expert and founder of Shot IQ and Mind IQ, joins us to share revolutionary insights that will transform how you think about the mental side of disc golf. Turner blows our minds with his explanation of what he calls "the ultimate human skill"—the ability to get loud in your head with the right words at the right moments. Through clear, practical examples, he breaks down exactly how your internal dialogue controls your disc golf performance, from those frustrating putting yips to executing perfect drives under pressure. We dive deep into the science of open and closed loop control systems, revealing why trying to fix your form during a throw almost always backfires. Joel shares the mental game equation that applies universally across all human performance: understanding where, when, and how to direct your conscious mind into specific tasks at specific moments. You'll learn why focusing on a chain link during putting works (and it's not just about aim), how to overcome anxiety on the course, and practical drills to practice getting louder than your thoughts. What makes this episode truly special is how immediately applicable these concepts are. Whether you're struggling with inconsistency, tournament nerves, or those inexplicable moments where your body won't execute what your brain intends, Turner's frameworks provide clarity and solutions you can implement immediately. The conversation moves seamlessly between detailed disc golf applications and broader life skills, showing how these same mental techniques apply to everything from professional performance to managing everyday anxiety.

The Art and Science of Bringing New Life to Degraded Disc Golf Courses 2:33:25

Send us a text What happens when a professional agroecologist with a passion for disc golf decides to tackle a deteriorating course? The answer is a revolutionary approach to course restoration that could change how we think about disc golf sustainability nationwide. Kris Pendleton, project lead for the NAD Restoration Project, joins us to share how his team is transforming the Naval Ammunition Depot Park disc golf course in Washington through ecological principles and community engagement. With an estimated 40,000 rounds played annually, NAD Park was showing clear signs of degradation—exposed roots, compacted soil, and eroding fairways. Rather than accepting this as inevitable, Pendleton saw an opportunity. Through creative applications of mulching, pathway development, and native plantings, the NAD Rangers are demonstrating how courses can actually improve with use rather than deteriorate. Their approach goes beyond simple maintenance to incorporate wildlife habitat, artistic elements, and educational opportunities. Most remarkably, they've achieved all this without municipal funding, instead leveraging community partnerships, volunteer labor, and innovative fundraising. The implications reach far beyond a single course. As disc golf explodes in popularity—with over 500 new municipal courses added nationwide last year alone—the need for sustainable approaches to course design and maintenance has never been greater. The NAD Restoration Project offers a blueprint that other communities can adapt, potentially transforming how we think about our relationship with disc golf courses everywhere. Whether you're a course manager, club leader, or simply a player who loves beautiful courses, this conversation will change how you see the ground beneath your feet on your next round. The future of disc golf isn't just about playing courses—it's about becoming stewards of these special places.
