The Approach Shot is our golf “flavored” podcast and radio show. We call it “golf flavored” because we interview celebrities and semi-celebrities about their time in the spotlight, their passions, their projects, giving back to the community and of course, their golf game.
What makes The Approach Shot unique is that we try not to ask the same old questions our guests have been asked over and over. Sure, we cover the areas that made them well known, but we also ask about their golf game (the good, the bad and the ugly) and their love affair and hatred for golf.
Emmy Award winner GORDON CLAPP, best known for his role as Detective Greg Medavoy on NYPD BLUE steps behind the mic on this episode of The Approach Shot
03-15-2026
Hilarious and thoughtful, poetic yet humble, this episode with GORDON CLAPP is so much more than NYPD BLUE.
Sure, he won an Emmy for his role as Detective Greg Medavoy, and had a cast of great actors like Dennis Franz, Jimmy Smits and so many more to work with, but Gordon seems even more comfortable on stage doing a one man show, or living his best life doing theater in his beloved New England.
If you listen to podcasts to smile and be entertained, this episode of The Approach Shot with Gordon Clapp is a must listen.

TERRY HANRATTY is a 2x Super Bowl champion, a BCS National champion and is finally a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. He celebrates his (post) birthday with us on The Approach Shot.
02-15-2026
We call The Approach Shot the golf "flavored" podcast. Never has that description been more evident as it is in this episode with quarterback TERRY HANRATTY.
Sure, we talk golf. We are, as mentioned a GOLF "flavored" show. But we also talk with Terry about finally being inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. And about the amazing coaches that shaped him. His friendship with Terry Bradshaw. His podcast. And yes, his battle with Stage 4 lung cancer, which he has every intention on beating.
But, it's how he deals with cancer that is so incredible. He attacks it with humor and head-on and wishes others would do the same. Some would call him brave, others might call him an optimist. We call him our brother and our friend.
This is a rare glimpse into the true heart of a champion, on and off the field.
