GolfTalk Live, Traveling Golfer Announce Increase in Distribution as Part of The Golf Director Network

(PHILADELPHIA, Pa.) - The nationally award-winning GolfTalk Live radio and Traveling Golfer television shows reached an agreement to share content with Myrtle Beach's nationally recognized team at The Golf Director.

The Golf Director Radio (TGD Radio) features podcast archives and the newest content from some of the top names in golf media. Audience surveys show listeners from more than 160 countries and territories across the world, and they will now be able to listen to GolfTalk Live within the TGD Radio page.

TGD TV, created in January of 2013, features many hit shows from around the country featuring nationally award-winning hosts including radio and television personality Mitch Laurance and former PGA Tour Professional Hugh Royer III. The Traveling Golfer television show episodes will now be available to view on TGD TV, and will feature each new episode as it is released.

"With all of the golf course closings and economic turmoil in the golf industry the past 10 years, growing the game has been very difficult," explains GolfTalk Live and Traveling Golfer host, Tony Leodora. "Partnering with The Golf Director to keep delivering the best content extends the network even further to help new interested golfers stay with the game, and give avid, passionate golfers the information they are looking for."

"Everyone at The Golf Director is absolutely thrilled to be able to offer this content to our viewers, listeners and readers to expand on the information we are able to provide avid golfers," says Shan Coughlin, Head of Sales and Marketing at The Golf Director.
   
The GolfTalk Live radio show, hosted by Tony Leodora, is the award-winning weekly radio show that was named No. 1 Golf Radio Show in America by the International Network of Golf at the PGA Merchandise Show in three of the last six years. The show airs 52 weeks a year from 7 to 8 a.m. each Saturday on WNTP 990-AM and on www.wntp.com. The show also has gone into syndication, with the first affiliate being WOND 1400-AM in Atlantic City. It airs there at 3 p.m. on Saturday.

The Traveling Golfer - also a national award-winner in just its first year on the air - appears as a series of monthly shows hosted by Leodora, who has 15 years of experience in televised golf shows. It is featured on the Inside Golf television show on Comcast SportsNet in the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington markets; plus the Press Box television show on Ch. 4 in Myrtle Beach. The featured destination stays on the home website - plus a long list of affiliated websites -- for one month, before being replaced by a new show. The old shows are archived on the home website, www.travelinggolfervideo.com.
