From Facebook to the Fairway: Paul Ollinger on Comedy, Golf, and the Pursuit of Happiness
In this episode of the Accelerate Golf Podcast, I sit down with Paul Ollinger — stand-up comedian, best-selling author, and former Facebook exec — for a wildly entertaining and insightful conversation that spans ambition, risk-taking, and the surprising overlap between golf and comedy.
Paul shares his bold leap from a high-powered tech career (he was Facebook’s VP of Sales in the early days) to life on the stand-up stage — performing at top clubs and festivals across North America. We talk about his unique comedy shows at private country clubs, what makes golf such fertile ground for humor, and why laughter might be the best strategy in the game.
We also dive into Paul’s Reasonably Happy Podcast, where he explores the complex relationship between money and meaning. Expect thoughtful reflections on success, the itch for “more,” and how golf teaches us as much about life as it does about swing mechanics.
If you’re into golf, comedy, or redefining what success looks like — this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
