What happens when a former NFL lineman, a sports radio veteran, and thirty-four years of community generosity collide on a perfect North Georgia morning? Hosts Dave Garner and John Davis broadcast live from the 34th Annual John Davis Golf Classic at Bent Tree Golf Club, raising over a million dollars for Georgia Mountains Hospice. They cover Drake London's massive Falcons extension, MLB salary cap talk, NIL legislation, NHL and NBA playoffs, and the explosive rise of pickleball — all while welcoming guests and serving the community that built them.
