Alice Cooper and Rocco Mediate team up to host exclusive monthly golf show ‘Rolling the Rock’
Rock legend Alice Cooper and six-time PGA Tour winner Rocco Mediate team up for a unique new golf show airing exclusively on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio (Ch. 92).
“Rocco asked me to do this show with him, talking about rock and golf, and it could not be a more perfect fit,” Alice said. “We‘ve known each other a long time. We’ve played in many tournaments together. He’s a frustrated rocker, and I’m a frustrated golfer. It’s a match made on the fairway to heaven. It’s an anything-goes show that is all improv — we have no idea what we’re going to talk about until we start talking. We’re quite literally just ‘rolling the rock.’”
How to listen
“Rolling the Rock with Alice Cooper and Rocco Mediate” debuts July 2 at 6pm ET and airs monthly on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio (Ch. 92).
The SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio channel is available to listeners nationwide on satellite channel 92 and streaming on the SiriusXM app.
What you’ll hear
Frequent playing partners Rocco and Alice share stories from their careers, talk with guests from the worlds of entertainment and golf, and discuss the latest topics from the professional tour, equipment, instruction, and more.
Alice Cooper
Since taking up the game nearly 50 years ago as he was recovering from alcohol addiction, Alice Cooper has been one of golf’s best-known celebrity devotees. He would say later that he had essentially traded one addiction for another.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has been on the golf course six days a week for the past 30 years (even while touring), boasts an impressive four handicap, and titled his 2007 autobiography “Alice Cooper, Golf Monster.”
Rocco Mediate
Rocco Mediate joined the PGA TOUR in 1986 and earned the first of his six tour wins at the 1991 Doral-Ryder Open. He finished in the top 10 in major championships four times in his career. Perhaps the most memorable of these was his runner-up finish at the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines when he competed head-to-head against Tiger Woods over 19 playoff holes.
Since joining the PGA TOUR Champions in 2013, Rocco has won four times, including a major victory at the 2016 Senior PGA Championship.
In addition to hosting this new “Rolling the Rock” show, Rocco hosts his own program, “The Rocco Hour,” on Monday and Tuesday nights on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio.
