Birdies & Bourbon welcomes Hall of Fame musician and golf innovator Kurt Howell to the show. Kurt shares his story of starting in the music industry, touring and recording with the best in the industry and turning his attention to golf. It was great to chat through his history with music and his passion for golf.
In the year 2023, Kurt Howell, a versatile individual who possesses not only a deep passion for golf but also accomplishments in music and business, embarked on an extraordinary journey. While serving as the National Sales Manager at NTP Technology (DAD/Penta), he laid the foundation for 813.GOLF, an enterprise with a singular mission: to revitalize and safeguard the heritage of putters. What began as a humble garage hobby soon blossomed into something truly remarkable.
After years of development, 813.golf has perfected a solution to enhance the center of gravity (CG) in most modern putters. By strategically adding mass behind the sweet spot, this innovative system improves feel and control—without disrupting most sightlines.
USGA-approved, the RôL™ (Roll On Line) Weight System by 813.golf delivers unmatched feel, performance, and precision, setting a new standard in putting technology.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
