If you’ve ever wondered where you can find out the details of the juiciest and most scandalous happenings at clubs around the country, turns out, there’s a newsletter for that.
On this week’s episode of Subpar, hosts Colt Knost and Drew Stoltz welcomed the man behind “Country Club Confidential” — a weekly newsletter “where all the dirty laundry gets aired” — as their guest. To protect the man’s identity, he was given the pseudonym “Scott” for the interview.
It’s been 18 months since Scott released the first edition of Country Club Confidential, and any worries he once had about gathering enough content for each newsletter have now been assuaged.
“The club I belong to, I think we’ve already done six of them out of the last year-and-a-half,” Scott said. “If that club has six, there’s thousands across the country and the world. There’s plenty out there.”
So far, Scott hasn’t had to chase down content — most of it comes to him. What kind of stories is he telling? Scott gave a rundown of some of the newsletter’s most outrageous tales, which include the following:
-A con man who managed to pose as a prospective member and scam $20,000 from a club
-The players who managed to get out at Cypress Point as guests of a dead man — for two years
-A man who was creating phantom GHIN postings for another player
… And so many more!
To hear a selection of these stories and plenty of others from Scott, check out the full episode of Subpar below.
