- 0:09Speaker 2: Get drunkky drink responsibly, drink responsibly.
- 0:17Speaker 1: We are here, we're in wintry Melbourne, but we're having
- 0:21Speaker 1: a great time watching all the lead up grass court tournaments.
- 0:24Speaker 1: It's been a big week. Obviously, we'll get into the
- 0:27Speaker 1: nitty gritty in a second. But I have a social.
- 0:33Speaker 2: Beef producing just grown by the way.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Because I always have some. Well, I had a social
- 0:41Speaker 1: beef traveling back to Melbourne. Yes, okay, and I'll make
- 0:45Speaker 1: I'll make it tennis adjacent. It's tennis adjacent.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Tennis adjacent, fairly tennis related. I'm ready.
- 0:54Speaker 1: I was on a short flight from Canberra to Melbourne, yep,
- 0:57Speaker 1: one hour at most.
- 0:59Speaker 2: The plane.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Every one boards the plane. I'm sitting in the window seat.
- 1:04Speaker 1: A man comes in and sits in the middle seat,
- 1:09Speaker 1: and the plane takes off and there's no one sitting
- 1:11Speaker 1: in the aisle seat. So I said, oh you can,
- 1:15Speaker 1: you can move over, and he said, if.
- 1:18Speaker 2: You go tell you that's fair. Yeah, totally. It's I'm
- 1:22Speaker 2: surprised you have to even say something that's just a
- 1:25Speaker 2: logical human thing to do is just move over.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I wasn't that blood.
- 1:30Speaker 2: I wasn't like scoop shoot like a cat, like he's
- 1:35Speaker 2: shrewing away a cat.
- 1:37Speaker 1: I said, oh you can, you can move across now?
- 1:40Speaker 1: Is that bad? Yeah?
- 1:43Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, I mean maybe you should have done like, oh,
- 1:46Speaker 2: there's a seat that lucky for years.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Well, so he goes, no, I'm good.
- 1:57Speaker 2: He was liked you.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Well, are just as a kind of a graying middle
- 2:03Speaker 1: aged man sitting next to another gray middle man. But
- 2:07Speaker 1: then I nuts curly you fro He says, no, I'm good,
- 2:18Speaker 1: and I was like, oh okay, and then he's kind
- 2:22Speaker 1: of leaning across me to look out the window. He's
- 2:26Speaker 1: like kind of like invading, not like totally over me,
- 2:30Speaker 1: but he's just kind of like peering out and what
- 2:32Speaker 1: are you looking at? We're leaving Canberra.
- 2:33Speaker 2: There's nothing farmlandout Parliament has. Oh maybe you wanted to
- 2:40Speaker 2: see God who cares?
- 2:43Speaker 1: And then so me being me, I shut the window.
- 2:50Speaker 2: Why why this guy genuinely wanted to see outside of you?
- 2:55Speaker 2: Like today, my friend, we're in a shut.
- 2:58Speaker 1: We're in a standoff here. And then I have the
- 3:01Speaker 1: power and if he's not gonna scoot across, then I
- 3:05Speaker 1: shut the window. Yeah, do you think that's insane?
- 3:12Speaker 2: Is it?
- 3:17Speaker 1: Well? I noticed that he as he was scrolling through
- 3:21Speaker 1: his phone when we landed, that he had some tennis content.
- 3:24Speaker 2: On his oh the algorithm on his algo.
- 3:28Speaker 1: I could have maybe he was like a fan of
- 3:30Speaker 1: the pod and he was just like trying to snuggle
- 3:33Speaker 1: up to me. But they didn't have that vibe at all.
- 3:36Speaker 1: And then now it was a tense one hour flight
- 3:39Speaker 1: that is so yeah yeah yeah yeah. And then only
- 3:43Speaker 1: on Australian flights that they make you raise the window
- 3:46Speaker 1: before landing on takeoff and landing. Yeah, it's a bizarre rule. Yeah,
- 3:50Speaker 1: Australian aviation rules are so dumb to me, like that
- 3:54Speaker 1: one in particular, especially if the sun's blasting through. And
- 3:58Speaker 1: then the them checking your phone when you walk onto
- 4:02Speaker 1: the plane or your boarding pass. They just checked it
- 4:05Speaker 1: at the gate. What do you think happened in between
- 4:07Speaker 1: the gate and getting on the pluck name, Like, why
- 4:10Speaker 1: am I showing you my phone again? And they don't
- 4:13Speaker 1: do that anywhere else in the world. Really, it's only
- 4:15Speaker 1: Australia where they think somehow someone got onto the air
- 4:18Speaker 1: bridge and it's like.
- 4:23Speaker 3: A shutgun.
- 4:23Speaker 2: The seventeen year old had multiple firearms on him. He
- 4:26Speaker 2: allegedly cut through the perimeter of Avalon Airport.
- 4:29Speaker 1: If this passenger had a boarding pass, it could have
- 4:32Speaker 1: ended very differently. Is that right?
- 4:34Speaker 2: Maybe that's they didn't check his pass, Is that right?
- 4:40Speaker 1: So, but if he had a boarding pass, he would
- 4:41Speaker 1: have been Yeah.
- 4:43Speaker 2: I kind of like it when they say, oh, welcome aboard, miss.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Who oh yeah, if you get the if your boarding
- 4:49Speaker 1: pass is like gold or platinum, and then you get
- 4:51Speaker 1: the note come.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Back, welcome back, welcome back.
- 4:54Speaker 1: Welcome back, Sir Goldstein, your cherryo at away. It's your
- 4:59Speaker 1: air chariot.
- 4:59Speaker 2: Away, your window seat away.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Yeah, but I've had it.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Didn't move, He didn't move.
- 5:07Speaker 1: But then my wife said me shutting the window was
- 5:09Speaker 1: a sociopathic I think it's actually it's kind of rules.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Yeah, it does, rules that you want to it just
- 5:17Speaker 2: rules that you went ahead with it and then you
- 5:19Speaker 2: enjoyed that fly.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it was an hour of just tense.
- 5:24Speaker 2: But were you listening to anything? What were you listening to?
- 5:27Speaker 2: I have put on Likest the machine.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, but on speaker.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Anyways, I can't make that tennis adjacent.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Show me perfect stay.
- 5:42Speaker 1: One more thing before we get into the proper like results.
- 5:47Speaker 1: You had Curios beating straight straight sets. Curios then withdrew
- 5:53Speaker 1: from the tournament. Is his well, let's cover it right now.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Is Curios has comeback? Are at a non starter?
- 6:01Speaker 2: Well, it feels that way. In singles he wasn't given
- 6:05Speaker 2: a wild cud no to Wimbledon, but he was given
- 6:07Speaker 2: a doubles wild cud Interesting.
- 6:10Speaker 1: Yeah, and he just lost to fellow Aussie Adam Walton
- 6:14Speaker 1: in Mayorka and the grass tournament there, and his knee
- 6:17Speaker 1: didn't look great. You think the Wimbledon decision not to
- 6:22Speaker 1: give Carryos a wild card was because they saw him
- 6:27Speaker 1: pulling out of previous tournaments and they're like, well he's
- 6:30Speaker 1: not going to really.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Yeah, he's too much of a risk.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, And I think there's so many other guys
- 6:35Speaker 1: to give wild cards too. I mean, Demitrov got one, Varenka,
- 6:39Speaker 1: gail Montfees did not, and he like surprisingly, you know,
- 6:44Speaker 1: everyone knows it's last year on tour, and so to
- 6:47Speaker 1: give Kurrios.
- 6:47Speaker 2: One would have felt that would have felt when yeah, we'll.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Get into the other wildcards in a moment for Wimbledon,
- 6:54Speaker 1: and obviously the draw will be out on Friday.
- 6:56Speaker 2: That's going to be well, that's exciting. I know we
- 6:59Speaker 2: have to do what do you call it?
- 7:02Speaker 1: Brackets?
- 7:03Speaker 2: Yes, Oh my gosh, see you later in the dementia
- 7:07Speaker 2: wood sprinkling, little magic like what is the word anyway?
- 7:17Speaker 1: The resert reserts.
- 7:19Speaker 2: Results, Oh my god, I got strawberries on.
- 7:21Speaker 1: The mind resert dessert.
- 7:23Speaker 4: Uh.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Francis Tfo wins Holliay, his first five hundred win of
- 7:29Speaker 1: his career.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a big hitting game.
- 7:32Speaker 1: He looks amazing.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:34Speaker 1: I never thought of him as a grass court specialist.
- 7:37Speaker 1: I thought hardcourt was a surface. But beating Taylor Fritz
- 7:40Speaker 1: four and four in pretty confident fashion, I think he's
- 7:45Speaker 1: gonna go deep into Wimbledon.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Ooh you're here first.
- 7:49Speaker 1: Wow, Francis into the second week of Wimbledon. My predictions.
- 7:53Speaker 1: But TFO's run was amazing. He beat Kabuli early on,
- 7:58Speaker 1: and then the match of the tournament for me, him
- 8:00Speaker 1: and Felix a ali Asim just an absolute, just baseline battle.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:06Speaker 1: That ended I think fourteen twelve in the third set
- 8:09Speaker 1: tiber Yeah, so that was killer. And then I know
- 8:13Speaker 1: he doesn't have a winning record against Taylor Fritz. So
- 8:16Speaker 1: I think Fritz was the favorite going into the final
- 8:18Speaker 1: in Halay. And then Fritz, of course, you know, lost
- 8:22Speaker 1: four and four, but beat Zverev in the semi final. Yeah,
- 8:26Speaker 1: and Zverev has a Taylor Fritz problem because he doesn't
- 8:29Speaker 1: beat him. Guten dog, That's all I got. So don't
- 8:32Speaker 1: get that excited Fritz. I mean he is showing some
- 8:35Speaker 1: good grass court form, but uh yeah, not getting through Tiaffo,
- 8:40Speaker 1: his fellow countryman in the final. Of course, the real
- 8:45Speaker 1: American battle was happening on the White House lawn with
- 8:48Speaker 1: the UFC events insane. Yeah yeah.
- 8:51Speaker 2: How's the production value on none event?
- 8:53Speaker 1: It's pretty good?
- 8:54Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean through the White House in some
- 8:56Speaker 2: cases what was going on with the old country.
- 9:01Speaker 1: This is like a different place. So Taylor Fritz runner
- 9:05Speaker 1: up in Hallay, And like I said last week, I
- 9:08Speaker 1: don't know how much you tried to watch of it,
- 9:10Speaker 1: but the shadows and the roof in there makes a
- 9:13Speaker 1: lot of the matches. Yeah, so I don't know if
- 9:18Speaker 1: the organizers of Halley want to listen.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Hall Hall, Hallay Hall.
- 9:24Speaker 1: Didn't we argue about this last week?
- 9:25Speaker 2: Yeah? We did, and he said, let's commit to Halley
- 9:28Speaker 2: and then I've taken us back.
- 9:29Speaker 1: Okay, that's good. And then the other men's tournament that
- 9:37Speaker 1: was going on was the Queen's Club tournament where Francisco
- 9:42Speaker 1: Cerundelo overcame Tommy Paul and three very loved this. Yeah,
- 9:48Speaker 1: it was a good match.
- 9:48Speaker 2: It was a good match. It was a beautiful story.
- 9:52Speaker 2: His parents arrived. This was the bit I loved.
- 9:54Speaker 1: His dad watching for the first time.
- 9:57Speaker 2: Yeah, he doesn't like flying. He's a fear of flying,
- 10:00Speaker 2: and apparently he's been trying to get over it. And
- 10:03Speaker 2: they were all like, yeah, we'll believe it when we
- 10:05Speaker 2: see it, you know, And he did it. But they
- 10:07Speaker 2: only arrived, like at the end of the game.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Is that true?
- 10:11Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 10:11Speaker 3: I want to think my family, that is my mom.
- 10:14Speaker 3: They just arrived for the last two games.
- 10:16Speaker 2: My dad.
- 10:17Speaker 3: I mean, it's the first moment that I see them
- 10:21Speaker 3: because there arrive in the last two games from Argentina.
- 10:23Speaker 3: I mean, it's the first time my dad takes a
- 10:26Speaker 3: flight and the first time he can't watch me outside
- 10:30Speaker 3: from Argentina.
- 10:30Speaker 1: So there isn't it right. Yeah, So we overcame the
- 10:37Speaker 1: fear of flying to get to the Queen's.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Club and they only arrived at the airport like two
- 10:42Speaker 2: thirty or something.
- 10:43Speaker 1: Yeah, So if he lost the match, would they just
- 10:46Speaker 1: quietly leave and not?
- 10:52Speaker 2: Yeah, they just call him from the hotel. We did
- 10:54Speaker 2: a try and we did try.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the trying is what matters, right, Yeah,
- 11:00Speaker 1: but then also a fear of flying. I guess he
- 11:04Speaker 1: took some therapy to get over it and then make
- 11:07Speaker 1: the tournament. Come see his sunplay. But also it's a
- 11:10Speaker 1: good excuse if you don't want to do something right,
- 11:13Speaker 1: Like my wife thinks I have a fear of shopping.
- 11:15Speaker 2: Hello, sorry, I just can't do it. I can't do
- 11:21Speaker 2: the shopping.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Oh my god, today I feel gay.
- 11:27Speaker 2: There's so much World Cup fever on. Yeah, I'm kind
- 11:31Speaker 2: of loving it.
- 11:32Speaker 1: It's great. Who's going to win?
- 11:34Speaker 2: I don't want it to be well who is? Say?
- 11:39Speaker 2: Is looking actually pretty good? They're looking really really fun
- 11:42Speaker 2: and at home the crowd is crazy.
- 11:45Speaker 1: Yeah, and then so loud. I know we're diverting. But
- 11:49Speaker 1: the Australia USA match, Yeah, obviously I'm basically half Australian
- 11:54Speaker 1: half American at this point, but when Australia scored that
- 11:56Speaker 1: own goal, I was like, I'm American, but.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Like when it when it's down to games like that,
- 12:05Speaker 2: don't you aren't you just American? You've got to go
- 12:07Speaker 2: for your origin. You got to go for your country
- 12:10Speaker 2: of origin for sure, right, totally. Yeah, in America is
- 12:14Speaker 2: great again. We love America, America beautiful.
- 12:19Speaker 1: I believe that we don't excel at the.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Chance either, do it, Ausies? But I have heard some
- 12:27Speaker 2: pretty good ones at the World Cup.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Yeah, they had a very good one. The Aussie boys
- 12:32Speaker 1: are on a bender. Donald Trump is a sex offender.
- 12:36Speaker 1: Pretty good.
- 12:36Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's no, we believe, we believe.
- 12:45Speaker 4: Us.
- 12:46Speaker 1: That's the way we like it.
- 12:47Speaker 2: We like it.
- 12:48Speaker 1: We so Cerrendilo beating Tommy Paul and it looked really
- 12:57Speaker 1: after the first set, and Tommy Paul up a break
- 12:59Speaker 1: in this second that he was gonna run away with it.
- 13:02Speaker 1: But Sarrendalo's forehand does a lot of damage and Tommy
- 13:06Speaker 1: Paul can play erratically when put under pressure, and that's
- 13:10Speaker 1: pretty much what happened in this match. But it was
- 13:14Speaker 1: an awesome final to end the week on and surrenderal.
- 13:17Speaker 3: Getting to take a plane and come here. It's the
- 13:23Speaker 3: father Day, you know, Gendina, so.
- 13:25Speaker 2: Be there for you.
- 13:28Speaker 1: So tell me Paul looking good. I mean, I think
- 13:31Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of Americans in the second
- 13:33Speaker 1: week of Wimbledon at this.
- 13:35Speaker 2: Rate, because it's a good time.
- 13:38Speaker 1: I know, because obviously on clay we don't really show up.
- 13:42Speaker 1: But I think Tfo, Temmy, Paul, Ben Shelton playing right,
- 13:45Speaker 1: obviously Taylor Fritz. So it's gonna be, yeah, a good,
- 13:48Speaker 1: good tournament, I believe for us. And this story with Sarrendalo, yeah,
- 13:57Speaker 1: I do. I have experienced pain before. I don't know
- 14:01Speaker 1: if you saw the footage of him getting hit in the.
- 14:04Speaker 4: Throat, yes, oh gosh, oh no, that's got him right
- 14:15Speaker 4: in the throat.
- 14:16Speaker 2: Straight in the He was at the net in the
- 14:19Speaker 2: throat ow out of what probably one hundred and something
- 14:24Speaker 2: miles Proud.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Yeah, and it looks brutal. I mean, getting tagged in
- 14:30Speaker 1: the throat. It has happened to me. Really, Yes, I'm
- 14:35Speaker 1: trying to get it dance around saying I took get
- 14:37Speaker 1: him shot in the throat, dance. I was playing doubles
- 14:45Speaker 1: and one of my good buddies on the other side
- 14:48Speaker 1: of the net. I was up at the net and
- 14:50Speaker 1: he took one out of the air and it went
- 14:53Speaker 1: straight into my atoms apple and I was I was
- 14:57Speaker 1: on the ground for a second because I couldn't breathe,
- 15:00Speaker 1: and then I got up in pain, but not you know,
- 15:03Speaker 1: any serious damage. But then realized I was talking with
- 15:07Speaker 1: a whistle.
- 15:08Speaker 2: So I would love that version of Michael.
- 15:12Speaker 1: I had to do gigs that week and I was
- 15:15Speaker 1: just whistling through my words and.
- 15:17Speaker 2: It was just, yeah, whistling while you would.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I whist at work. But I wasn't happy at all.
- 15:23Speaker 1: And he because he was a good friend, that did it.
- 15:25Speaker 1: And once it was obvious I was fine, But then
- 15:28Speaker 1: talking with the whistle, he thought it was the most hilarious.
- 15:31Speaker 2: It's really funny. Yeah that is crazy.
- 15:36Speaker 1: Yeah, but Cerrendolo, no whistling. Besides, that's just being happy
- 15:41Speaker 1: to win the tournament. Yeah. Special mentioned a Rinky.
- 15:45Speaker 2: Hitcheacta did so well.
- 15:47Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, defeating a yearie l Hechka, Rinky beating a
- 15:52Speaker 1: top twenty player and he has had a great season,
- 15:54Speaker 1: so huge win.
- 15:55Speaker 2: Yeah, good on him.
- 15:56Speaker 1: Yeah, some confidence for Rinky going into the big show,
- 16:00Speaker 1: big show, Yeah, the championships. And then because we're still
- 16:05Speaker 1: on this tournament, the Queen's Club had some controversy m
- 16:12Speaker 1: hm that we absolutely love yeah Moute, which I believe.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Was my favorite, one of our favorites. Yeah, you needed
- 16:20Speaker 2: the top three.
- 16:21Speaker 1: We need a mooned personalities. That's so frustrated. You know,
- 16:25Speaker 1: when I had a match point, I was on the
- 16:27Speaker 1: second serve. Okay, you hatim in the middle. What about
- 16:30Speaker 1: you do? You just put the ball in the court.
- 16:31Speaker 3: And then he hates me one. I was like, fuck,
- 16:34Speaker 3: I would have to serve and I would have to noms.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Please no right content.

- 17:15Speaker 1: It gets a laugh from the crowd, and you can
- 17:16Speaker 1: see in his face he's like a mischievous little boys.
- 17:19Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, he's.

- 18:42Speaker 1: Yeah, there's exactly way worse things on a daily basis.
- 18:46Speaker 1: And then also, like to put it in context, Zvera
- 18:49Speaker 1: of a couple of years ago in Anger took his
- 18:52Speaker 1: racket and smashed up the chair umpire's chair. Yeah he
- 18:56Speaker 1: got fined forty thousand dollars for that.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Oh this was completely different.
- 19:01Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is fun.
- 19:02Speaker 2: This is fun. Tell you have some fun. I know.
- 19:06Speaker 1: So I don't know. We should start a moute kickstarter
- 19:09Speaker 1: to get him as money back for for the tournament
- 19:12Speaker 1: fund me.
- 19:13Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, let's do that. And then when he comes
- 19:15Speaker 2: on the pod at the Australian Open, we'll give him
- 19:18Speaker 2: a big check.
- 19:19Speaker 1: That's awesome, not a go fundme, a go fuck me.
- 19:26Speaker 2: Very good.
- 19:28Speaker 1: So moving on to the wt A and the Berlin
- 19:32Speaker 1: Grass Court Championships. Linda Noskova beating American Jess I wanted
- 19:38Speaker 1: just to win.
- 19:40Speaker 2: Yeah, you, Mike, I know you're a Biggoles fan.
- 19:43Speaker 1: I love Pagola. She was she was great when she
- 19:46Speaker 1: came in for the interview. I love talking NFL to
- 19:50Speaker 1: American players. You do, and I thought it was hers
- 19:53Speaker 1: to win, but Noskova was kind of powering through the tournament.
- 19:57Speaker 1: She'll enter the top ten for the first time after this.
- 20:00Speaker 1: Pagola had an insane match against Sablenka, Yeah, where Sablenka
- 20:05Speaker 1: got bageled in the third set decider.
- 20:07Speaker 2: Yeah, do you think she just gives up?
- 20:10Speaker 1: Well, it's an interesting thing because at the French Open
- 20:14Speaker 1: she got bageled in the third set by Diana Schneider.
- 20:17Speaker 2: Right, do you think she just decides at one point?
- 20:19Speaker 2: Is like, it's not for me.
- 20:21Speaker 1: There's definitely something mentally going on. But to come back,
- 20:25Speaker 1: they had a rain delay and it looked like she
- 20:27Speaker 1: was going to lose in straight sets Sablenka, But then
- 20:30Speaker 1: after the raindelay, came back and on that second set,
- 20:32Speaker 1: and so you think the momentums with her, but then
- 20:35Speaker 1: the bagel in the third set decider, it seemed to switch. Yeah,
- 20:39Speaker 1: it's like a mental drop off that. I mean, I
- 20:41Speaker 1: know she's battled mental demons in the past with their
- 20:44Speaker 1: serve where she like it took like a good year
- 20:48Speaker 1: of trying to rectify that, but yeah, I don't know.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Double bagels and two tournaments close together is.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Not Yeah, well, it's not looking good.
- 20:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 21:00Speaker 2: For Wimbledon, she's still the favorite. Yeah, still the favorite,
- 21:02Speaker 2: still the top seed. Other than that, uh Iyola Yola.
- 21:08Speaker 2: She had a great round, so good because she's got
- 21:12Speaker 2: so much confidence behind her and she's so level headed.
- 21:16Speaker 2: For however, like she's so young and she just speaks
- 21:18Speaker 2: like she's I don't know, got fifty years of experience
- 21:21Speaker 2: of life, experience, old soul, old soul, really grounded. Beats Rebucana,
- 21:27Speaker 2: beats my favorite sit Alina.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, but if it's Yalla, you're kind of
- 21:34Speaker 1: like like, yeah, it's still cool.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Yeah, it is so cool.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Yeah, but beating Rebeccaha is huge obviously, and then losing
- 21:41Speaker 1: to the eventual winner and Oscova, it's like what a run?
- 21:45Speaker 2: Yeah, incredible.
- 21:46Speaker 1: Yeah, she's part of I wanted to ask you about this.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Did you notice there's like a cool girl click.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Yeah, they all got photos together. Yeah, so it's like.
- 21:59Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, even yeah and then and then there is
- 22:03Speaker 1: one no zz yes.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they do loved it. They're a little girl crew.
- 22:10Speaker 1: They're a little girl crew.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be fun. Yeah, I'd love to know who,
- 22:15Speaker 2: like is the like I woant to know that the
- 22:18Speaker 2: behind the scenes, what like Who's the Yeah, the reality
- 22:21Speaker 2: TV of tell Oh Yeah, I think that would be
- 22:24Speaker 2: a good show.
- 22:24Speaker 1: That's not bad at all, and they are cool.
- 22:26Speaker 2: And especially on the on the Women's Tour, I think
- 22:29Speaker 2: it'd be I think it'd be a lot of fun.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Obviously there'd be people that wouldn't like each other or
- 22:33Speaker 2: just do their own thing, but I think they'd be
- 22:35Speaker 2: like real cool hangs.
- 22:36Speaker 1: But because they are, like, you know, doing almost fashion
- 22:39Speaker 1: shoots at every tournament, there's a ton of Instagram content.
- 22:43Speaker 1: Do you think there's players like say a Diana Schneider
- 22:47Speaker 1: or a Lauris Siegmund that are watching from the sidelines
- 22:50Speaker 1: going I wish I was.
- 22:51Speaker 2: In that cool? They've got their own cool girl group,
- 22:55Speaker 2: I reckon. Yeah, they're doing their own things.
- 22:57Speaker 1: But it is like a traveling circus, the W two
- 23:00Speaker 1: and the ATP College crew. Yeah, but do you think
- 23:03Speaker 1: they have a table in the cafeteria and.
- 23:05Speaker 2: Oh you know what I mean probably Yeah, they would
- 23:08Speaker 2: just gravitate toward each other.
- 23:10Speaker 1: Yeah, and they don't let you.
- 23:12Speaker 2: Know, you can't sit here?
- 23:13Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, stop trying to make fetch happen?
- 23:17Speaker 2: Yeah exactly.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Ah, what else, Well, let's get into the Wimbledon wild cards.
- 23:26Speaker 1: This is huge?
- 23:29Speaker 2: Happened?
- 23:29Speaker 1: Can we start with the headline story? Yeah, Serna.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Back?
- 23:36Speaker 1: Where is hold on? Serna is playing? I don't know
- 23:42Speaker 1: that's the wrong line. Serena Williams playing singles Wimbledon.
- 23:51Speaker 2: Yeah, we love to see it. Oh, this is exciting.
- 23:56Speaker 2: I mean yeah, she's forty four years old.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're telling me there's a chance I can
- 24:02Speaker 1: play in Wimbledon.
- 24:03Speaker 2: Definitely. Yeah. You can put your mind to anything.
- 24:08Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 24:08Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:09Speaker 1: I can't put my mind anything, but it doesn't mean
- 24:11Speaker 1: I'll succeed.
- 24:12Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, yeah, I believe in you. Serena playing is
- 24:18Speaker 2: that's pretty cool.
- 24:19Speaker 1: I think it's like huge obviously not only tennis news,
- 24:23Speaker 1: but like she's such a global name that Wimbledon knows
- 24:27Speaker 1: exactly what it's doing. They know they're going to get
- 24:30Speaker 1: a lot of eyeballs on whatever match or matches hopefully
- 24:35Speaker 1: as she ends up playing. But the draw is not
- 24:38Speaker 1: out till Friday. Who, Lizzie, who do you want to
- 24:43Speaker 1: see Serena play in the first round as a wildcat?
- 24:47Speaker 2: She could play anyone?
- 24:50Speaker 1: Yeah, do you want to? Well, do you want to Rena.
- 24:57Speaker 2: Osaka?
- 24:58Speaker 1: Amazing?
- 24:59Speaker 2: Could you have imagine, I mean Blockbusters, Serena, Goff, Goff, great, Serena,
- 25:05Speaker 2: Sabalanka crazy, any yeah, any of the top.
- 25:09Speaker 1: So you want to see a top ten Yes, play.
- 25:13Speaker 2: A top ten place Serena, I do?
- 25:15Speaker 1: Do you not want to go the other side of things?
- 25:18Speaker 1: And another say she plays another qualifier or a wild
- 25:22Speaker 1: card and then she gets a couple of matches in like.
- 25:26Speaker 2: No, no, no, I want it hard out. Yeah yeah,
- 25:31Speaker 2: welcome back Serena.
- 25:32Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean it could be any of those players, Like,
- 25:36Speaker 1: we won't know till Friday, but it's the draw is
- 25:39Speaker 1: going to be awesome on Friday, just when they announce
- 25:42Speaker 1: who's she.
- 25:42Speaker 2: Going to play, who she's going to play, it's going
- 25:44Speaker 2: to be sick.
- 25:45Speaker 1: I mean, I think Osaka is a good chout. I
- 25:47Speaker 1: think that would be.
- 25:48Speaker 2: That'd be awesome, awesome because like obviously Serena is coming
- 25:51Speaker 2: back to tennis, but the person playing her, if it
- 25:54Speaker 2: is like a top ten player, it's like such a
- 25:56Speaker 2: mental thing to have to face, like the queen of tennis.
- 25:59Speaker 1: Yeah I know, but she's also coming in with no matches.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, She's going from zero to sixty one one
- 26:09Speaker 1: doubles match she's going from zero to forty four, you know,
- 26:13Speaker 1: can she do it? I mean the one doubles match
- 26:16Speaker 1: and then oh, an interesting one would be tom Lanovic,
- 26:20Speaker 1: who beat Serena the US Open twenty twenty two for
- 26:23Speaker 1: her last match.
- 26:24Speaker 2: That's yeah, that would be cool.
- 26:26Speaker 1: That would be cool. But then it's just movement on
- 26:29Speaker 1: grass is difficult, and she is forty four, like her
- 26:32Speaker 1: serve is obviously still huge and great.
- 26:34Speaker 2: But I don't know, I just maybe she'll have that
- 26:37Speaker 2: sort of like not first time but you know, coming
- 26:41Speaker 2: back excitement.
- 26:43Speaker 1: Yeah, the adrenaline, yeah, yeah, I.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Mean the joy of playing.
- 26:47Speaker 1: From zero singles matches in a like pro event to
- 26:51Speaker 1: Wimbledon is nuts. I worry that this is like when
- 26:55Speaker 1: they announced the new Indiana Jones movie. Right, we're like
- 26:59Speaker 1: nostalgia and everything.
- 27:00Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, you're like, oh, I grew.
- 27:02Speaker 1: Up with this, and this, you know, is awesome to watch,
- 27:05Speaker 1: and then when it's actually happening, you're like they are
- 27:07Speaker 1: too old to be like they.
- 27:10Speaker 2: Do not have or when you go see an old band, yeah,
- 27:13Speaker 2: Paul McCartney, you cannot sing anymore. Yeah.
- 27:17Speaker 1: They have to poke Bob Dylan with a stick, so
- 27:20Speaker 1: he goes I'm in the word or whatever. Yeah, do
- 27:24Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Though it's exciting now, but
- 27:27Speaker 1: then in actual practice or in actual you know, match,
- 27:31Speaker 1: it's going to be like.
- 27:33Speaker 2: I think it'll be good. Okay, I think it'll be.
- 27:35Speaker 1: I trust you trust that she'll put in a competitive effort.
- 27:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 27:40Speaker 1: Yeah, And there's no controversy with her getting the wild
- 27:44Speaker 1: card over it's say a battling player on the WTA side.
- 27:48Speaker 2: That you know, I mean that probably is. There's probably
- 27:51Speaker 2: someone that could have got it, but it's Serena. I know,
- 27:56Speaker 2: it's Serena, Queen of Tennis at Wimbledon.
- 27:59Speaker 1: Yeah, and I mean we're happy that uh Kolinska is
- 28:04Speaker 1: then with a wild card who just played the final
- 28:07Speaker 1: of Roland Garros, so that is awesome. And then the
- 28:09Speaker 1: rest are just kind of a British players. Harriet Dart
- 28:14Speaker 1: of course has been around for a while, but the
- 28:16Speaker 1: other ones, Yeah, I mean, good luck, good.
- 28:21Speaker 2: Luck, oh, good luck, good luck out there.
- 28:24Speaker 1: Don't have to strawberries and cream before you go bets cuff.
- 28:35Speaker 1: And then on the men's side, the wild cards we've
- 28:38Speaker 1: briefly touched on before. Varenka and Dematrov are through no
- 28:44Speaker 1: wildcard for mon fees or carryos, But like you said,
- 28:47Speaker 1: Curios is playing the doubles. Yes, interestingly, no wild card
- 28:51Speaker 1: for Barrettini or Dan Evans. Dan Evans is interesting. He's
- 28:56Speaker 1: been like a British player who's given a lot of
- 28:59Speaker 1: trouble to the top ten over the past I don't
- 29:02Speaker 1: know howver many years, ten years plus, and it has
- 29:06Speaker 1: it said it's his last year playing. But no, no
- 29:09Speaker 1: wild card for Dan Evans. Interestingly, do they treat the
- 29:14Speaker 1: wild cards like a reality TV show?
- 29:16Speaker 2: That would be cool, That would be what I would watch.
- 29:18Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, so they're all standing there, you got all
- 29:22Speaker 1: the players, you got carry ons on on fees, you're
- 29:24Speaker 1: playing but yeah, yeah, yeah, and you get the who
- 29:29Speaker 1: cures starmer even though I know he's just resigned, but
- 29:32Speaker 1: he hands out like a single rose to the players
- 29:35Speaker 1: that get to walk.
- 29:36Speaker 2: You accept this?
- 29:37Speaker 1: I mean, why not? What would you call the reality
- 29:40Speaker 1: show for the wild card.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Wild things?
- 29:46Speaker 1: Whoa hell?
- 29:49Speaker 2: Yeah? And they have to do like a mechanical bull
- 29:58Speaker 2: to get the wild gun.
- 29:59Speaker 1: Okay, what is it? Mechanical ball? Oh, mechanical bull A
- 30:04Speaker 1: ball all right, mechanical bull are So they do that
- 30:11Speaker 1: as a like a lead up to the rose.
- 30:14Speaker 2: That's one of that's one of the challenges. Mechanical bawl.
- 30:18Speaker 1: Yeah, instead of a rose, maybe like, yeah, a golden
- 30:22Speaker 1: tennis ball. Yes, I mean we are, you know, gainfully
- 30:25Speaker 1: employed by the Australian Open.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Beautiful.
- 30:28Speaker 1: Maybe we should pitch wild things for the AO.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Yeah, behind the scenes. Yeah, I'm sure he flies on
- 30:35Speaker 2: the wall.
- 30:36Speaker 1: I'm sure the players would love it.
- 30:39Speaker 2: They love everything that we do.
- 30:41Speaker 1: They love competition, they love everything we do. But I mean,
- 30:44Speaker 1: standing there without a golden ball at the end of
- 30:47Speaker 1: the and it's like, all right, you got.
- 30:50Speaker 2: To fly back to Yeah, getting the cup. We'll get
- 30:56Speaker 2: him into shakeshare, We'll get him into a couple of them.
- 30:58Speaker 1: But it's funny because we'll why them out to Australia
- 31:02Speaker 1: and then if they don't get the golden ball, we'll
- 31:04Speaker 1: be like, well, you're not in the tournament, so you
- 31:06Speaker 1: gotta you gotta fly back to you know, it was true.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Then I got the hotel room.
- 31:13Speaker 2: That is true.
- 31:14Speaker 1: I can't wait all these sweet hotel rooms that I'll
- 31:18Speaker 1: be collecting on. We believe, we believe, we believe, we believe.
- 31:32Speaker 2: Okay, Mike, you ready for approaching the net featuring me
- 31:41Speaker 2: and you, Yes, which is of course the best way
- 31:45Speaker 2: that I love to watch tennis is through my phone
- 31:49Speaker 2: on social media, and this is what I have seen
- 31:51Speaker 2: this week. Yanixina, we love him. He has had an
- 31:56Speaker 2: asteroid named after him. Do you think he's happy with it?
- 32:00Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I guess it's a.
- 32:02Speaker 2: You'd be like, Okay, I guess.
- 32:05Speaker 1: It's funny to me because Yennick Sinner, who struggled in
- 32:09Speaker 1: the heat of Paris. This is an object that burns
- 32:14Speaker 1: up once entering Earth's atmosphere, So I guess it's that.
- 32:20Speaker 2: Is it a compliment?
- 32:23Speaker 1: I don't know, celestial like I think a comet would be.
- 32:27Speaker 2: I could for a star. Yeah, I want to star
- 32:31Speaker 2: like a star formation.
- 32:33Speaker 1: A whole consolation. Yeah, it's a whole.
- 32:37Speaker 2: Yeah. They've officially called the asteroid one two zero zero
- 32:43Speaker 2: nine seven Yonick Cinna special name.
- 32:46Speaker 1: What if this is the asteroid that brings about armageddon?
- 32:54Speaker 1: Because who remembers asteroids if they don't do any damage?
- 32:57Speaker 1: You know? So if this is the one, this is
- 32:59Speaker 1: the one where Yannick Center is going to end us all.
- 33:02Speaker 2: One to zero zero nine to seven, Yannick Cinner.
- 33:04Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck to it two zero zero nine to seven.
- 33:08Speaker 1: Also Bernard Thomic's current ranking.
- 33:13Speaker 2: Okay, big news always with any tournament that Naomi Orsucker
- 33:18Speaker 2: does is her outfit, and she has revealed her dress
- 33:22Speaker 2: and obviously Wimbledon you got to just have the whites.
- 33:25Speaker 2: Have you seen it?
- 33:26Speaker 1: I have not.
- 33:26Speaker 2: It's beautiful, right, I like it. It's got like a flower
- 33:29Speaker 2: trim okay, very like you know, cut out shoulder. I'm
- 33:33Speaker 2: into it. I think it's one of my favorite dresses
- 33:35Speaker 2: of hers.
- 33:36Speaker 1: Holdout it now. Yeah, it's obviously Wimbledon. She must find
- 33:41Speaker 1: restrictive in that she can't do a huge outlandish true.
- 33:44Speaker 2: I think restrictions are good though.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it does look pretty kind of streamlined.
- 33:52Speaker 1: I guess.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not neat, it's tidy.
- 33:54Speaker 1: Centatious as usual, and uh yeah, good for her.
- 33:58Speaker 2: Just more on Naomi's fashion future. Yes, she put on threads.
- 34:03Speaker 2: She is quite prolific on threads, to be honest. She's
- 34:07Speaker 2: always on it. You're following, Yeah, I follow her on threads.
- 34:10Speaker 2: She's always talking about her life and like she's just
- 34:12Speaker 2: kind of giving motivational stuff on threads, Like I don't know,
- 34:14Speaker 2: he needs to hear this today. But you're doing great.
- 34:17Speaker 1: Really.
- 34:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 34:18Speaker 1: It's interesting because, as we know interviewing, she's not the
- 34:21Speaker 1: most forthcoming.
- 34:22Speaker 2: Or no, she's an introvert.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Yeah, and so I guess there's a lot of people
- 34:26Speaker 1: like that that once are online, they kind.
- 34:28Speaker 2: Of, you know, they find their place. But she's like
- 34:31Speaker 2: she threw out on threads. I would actually love to
- 34:34Speaker 2: creative direct other tennis players. Lol, Come let me spice
- 34:38Speaker 2: up your life. Come let me spice up your life.
- 34:44Speaker 2: I don't think I would personally let I mean creative
- 34:47Speaker 2: direct for me because imagine saying no when she's like,
- 34:50Speaker 2: you have to wear this crown and giant cape and
- 34:54Speaker 2: pro style. I mean style is different for everyone, but
- 34:56Speaker 2: not for me. I think like to see you go
- 35:01Speaker 2: to like some sort of design school. First show me
- 35:05Speaker 2: your qualifications, then you can create a direct for me, babe. Okay. Finally,
- 35:11Speaker 2: on approaching the net, Wimbledon will sell around two million strawberries. Okay,
- 35:18Speaker 2: the strawberries excite you.
- 35:20Speaker 1: I mean strawberries and cream is a good dessert, right,
- 35:25Speaker 1: Like it's I don't mind it and they have pims
- 35:29Speaker 1: is the drinks is the drink? I mean it's refreshing
- 35:33Speaker 1: and it's better than eating most British food.
- 35:35Speaker 2: Yeah, it's better than.
- 35:38Speaker 1: Beer spot.
- 35:40Speaker 2: This is the yearly dose of fruit and ben it's
- 35:44Speaker 2: just the strawberries and cream.
- 35:45Speaker 1: Some beans in an old chew.
- 35:50Speaker 2: So bad, but the strawberries and cream. It is iconic.
- 35:54Speaker 2: And I love that they have a food, yes, because
- 35:56Speaker 2: there's no other tennis tournament really that has a food
- 36:00Speaker 2: so strongly associated with the tournament. That's true, Like what
- 36:03Speaker 2: could we have Australian specific Bunning sausage. We need to
- 36:08Speaker 2: get the Bunnings collab going.
- 36:10Speaker 1: With what paired with what?
- 36:11Speaker 2: Drink avb Yeah maybe yeah, Bundy and coke, Bundy and
- 36:17Speaker 2: Chicka roll, chicker roll chaser.
- 36:22Speaker 1: Vegim on toast Yeah, and Jack Daniels classic.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Oh, I can't wait for my vegimions and Jack Daniels
- 36:33Speaker 2: can wash.
- 36:34Speaker 1: It down warm Jack Daniels on a day.
- 36:38Speaker 2: But the thing I love about the strawberries is that
- 36:40Speaker 2: they only come from about forty kilometers away and they're
- 36:43Speaker 2: picked on the day, shipped straight there. These strawberries uh
- 36:50Speaker 2: low income workers, low income workers, and then they go
- 36:56Speaker 2: straight there for inspection and if they don't make the
