Summary

Jess and Kate dive head first into all things golf, first bringing on LPGA tour member Ryan O’Toole who offers a peek behind the curtain about what it’s like as a professional golfer (she’s like a part-time travel agent!), then a brand-new Campfire — this one brought by Anya Alvarez — about the backstory of one very famous 16th hole, the woman who helped design it, and what it’s like to play it.

0:00.0	Welcome to Off the Looking Glass. I'm Kate Fagan.
0:08.4	I'm Jessica Smetana.
0:10.2	Jess, we are back today with one of the through lines of this new iteration of Off the Looking
0:16.2	Glass. And the through line is Pebble Beach.
0:19.6	Yes.
0:20.6	What a beautiful spot. Here we are again. We're going to talk a little Pebble Beach. We're

0:57.9	So we had to obviously bring in your sixth favorite sport for another episode today.
1:03.6	Yes.
1:04.6	Well, and I'm actually really excited about this story and the episode because I can relate
1:08.9	to this concept of a golf course and correct me if I'm wrong here, Jess, because I saw
1:14.5	your swing on text for listeners. Jess sent a video of her driving the ball asking for
1:21.5	feedback. I was C.C. on it. The feedback was not being requested of me. It was being
1:25.7	requested of our resident professional golfer, Anya. So since Anya is not on the episode
1:31.3	today here at the top of the show, she'll be on later. You are the resident golf expert
