  Speaker 1: I mean, you just love free merch.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And we got a fill in producer, Adam Connolly,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: a C.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: The Fridge.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: We'll call you the fridge. The fridge. Oh yeah, we
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: got the fridge and fridge in. He's ice cold, he's cool.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he loves his new name.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: So we, you know, do a song or a poem
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: or something dumb at the start.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Usually so we.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll try this and if it's if it's bad,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: cut it. But I think Adam gives us a word
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: and then we'll freestyle a tennis wrap.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Off the back of about Yeah. Okay, so what's your word?
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Let's go spin spin yo.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Mike g in the house and Lizzie who we're here,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: because we're here and we're gonna hang out, keep going.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're about to begin. I take that tennis ball
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and I put it on some spin and I launch
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: it over the net. You ain't seen nothing yet. All right, Okay,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: we did it was bad, but we don't put a
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: beat over it. It'll sound amazing, amazing. Crusty krofs, krusty kroft.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Let's right, mate, all right, let's get into the tennis
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: news stuff. No way, all right, there is two fifty
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: tournaments everywhere.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Okay, little wedge tournaments.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I okay, this is another hot take from my
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: stay consistent with your surfaces tennis. Yeah, go hardcourt with
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the AO all the way through till the clay court,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: swing through the French, and then go through the French
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: with the clay. Then you have the short grass court season.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: There needs to be a grass court one thousand, but
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: there's not. But then after grass court we're on hard again. Yeah,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: and you stay on hard till the end of the US.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Is that so much to ask?
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: It isn't? I think? Yeah, it's a little bit confusing.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Right because all these two fifties are on every surface
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: imaginable besides grass as far as I can tell.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Are they just trying to get a little tournament in
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: that couldn't make it in.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: The little I think so. I think it's kind of
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: redemption for some of the clay quarders, the dirt rats
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: as you call them, the clay boys, you the clay
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: boys and the clay girls. Yeah, but yeah, I think
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: some of the clay quarders that obviously specialize on that
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: surface can play more tournaments and try and get a
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: title and stuff final Sits pass is fifty. I mean
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: it means he's back in the top sixty, I guess
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: you could say, because I think he's what fifty first
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: in the world. Now, yeah, he beat calling on at
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the Swiss Open, And I hope I'm saying this right.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Gastad Stot, do you know is the G silent? Do
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: we know Swiss pronunciation?
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: We don't know.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: The Fridge doesn't know. He just knows about keeping cool
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: and having a.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Good time, and he's wondering how the hell did I
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: have to do this job today?
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I think the Fridge is cool. He's rocking Chuck's Converse
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: All Star, and I'm jealous of anyone who could pull
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: off that look because I what size shoe are you? Fridge?
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: You're ten? All right? That makes sense because I'm like
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: a twelve and a half. And so when I wore Chucks.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Like it's anal McDonald, Yeah, it's a.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Long, skinny shoes. And I was on stage once, oh
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: and a guy. You know, you're up high on a
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: stage and a guy was like foot level and he's
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: just looking at my feet and then almost under his
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: breath he just goes sideshow.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Bob, you haven't stopped thinking about.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: No, stop worrying truck, even though I like him.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I got the pronunciation. Okay, Gustadh, so that
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: he said gustad, but is closer to a costade custode.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: All right, So the Swiss opening Custode he won in
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: three super tight sets, his first title in sixteen months.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Bye, my dad?
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Well that is this like Harold good things for since
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: a past.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I think he's free, He's feeling himself, doing his own thing.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it was like a transition during Wimbledon because
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: he had just bailed on his day as the coach
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: and then but now he's winning titles. I'll be a
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: two fifty, but still a title?
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Does he he has a coach? Has he replaced his?
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know about that. That's a good question. Another
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Spanish player winning the title, Daniel Marita won the Croatian Open,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: his first ever title. Yeah. Do you think he's only
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: twenty one years old? Do you think as a Spanish
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: player this is the biggest sporting news in Spain this week?
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, there might be something else going on, you think, Yeah,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure. If Daniel Marita gets the headlines he
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: was hoping for.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Carlos though in Yo, just look like what
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: has happened.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I think Carlos probably gets more headlines than Daniel Marito. Yeah,
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: you ought to carry out the trophy.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Carrying out the trophy, I mean, is that a heavy trophy.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I'm worried about his wrist.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, you didn't have the bon no imagine.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but he was like I saw footage of him
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: watching the front room. He's going through it because it
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: was zero zero up until the nineties or whatever. And yeah,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: I mean he's having a good time. We love Carlos
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: having a good time.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I will say one thing could do with a little
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: hair trim, little shaggy just I think I'm got to
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: that age of woman that sees hair in the eyes
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: and he's like, just just a little trim.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: You don't like a fringe.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: I don't mind a fringe, but it was it's covering,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: it's covering.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: He looks a little emo.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's his shaw. He's got a great bit of hair.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: I think it needs a little off the face.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: He has a little emo. The tennis world is still
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: saying where are you? And I am so Carlito, where
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: are you heal your wrist and come back to the tour.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: We need someone to beat Cinner.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's we should do punk rock songs at the top.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Ah so yeah, Daniel Marita hopefully. I mean, is he
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a clay Park specialist. He's only twenty years twenty one
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: years old, so maybe this means bigger things to come. Yes,

  Speaker 1: It's hard still Advisor, I think don't well, okay, I've
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: got to, yeah, but you look good, Advisor.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: You know you need a little high pony though.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: I tried once about maybe four or five years ago
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: to pull off Advisor because I just watch Is It
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: Moneyball with Brad Pitt and he was wearing a blue
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: visor and we had a blue visor like that, and.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: I had long hair like Brad Pitt did, and I
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: was like, I can do this. I put it on.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: I caught myself in the mirror, like going down to
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: one of the shots one day.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: I was like, no, this is not.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: I was just an Indian Wells a few months ago,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: and I remember sitting behind a bald guy wearing a visor,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: and I was like, that is an insane look because
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: just get the full hat. If you're bald under there,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: what are you doing.
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: I've seen it a couple of times at AO, where
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: you get the guys who buy the baseball caps that
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: have the hole in the which are designed for ladies
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: with a ponytail. Men can have ponytails kind of, but
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: it's kind of like you've got no hair, So why
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: did you buy that? Yeah, what did you think that
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: hole was for?
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: In the.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Well? I have a hat related question for you. This
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: is very important to me, backwards hats anywhere besides the
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: tennis court. Is that a faux part?
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: Absolutely not?
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, permission, permission.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm a child of the nineties, all right, yeah,
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: so yeah, born in the eighties.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, having fun in the nineties.
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: Backwards cap all good for me?
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: Is it?
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Is there an age limit past thirty? Podcast?
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: You stop? Yeah, backwards capping.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: So I'm quite a bit older than thirty five, and
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: I do that occasionally. I'm going to say it's older
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: than that. Forty t You're great, Thanks, good jeans from
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: my mother.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: All right, you're good. You can wear the backwards you
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: were a sweatband last week I did.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: It's the energy that you carry it with, right, Yeah.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: That's very true. But then we posted a clip. It
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: was about the curfew at Wimbledon, and we said get
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: rid of the curfew and we had so many people
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: very angry at us, and one guy attacked my backwards hat.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: He was like, why would I listen to this guy?
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: He's got no class? Look at his mustache and his
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: backwards hat?
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Did he say? Look at this fifty year old who
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: said that?
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: And I was like, forty five, come on yetive crowd
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: so retail manager, what does that entail exactly?
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: So I look after all of the kind of physical
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: bricks and water retail throughout the precincts in January during
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: the AO. So there's fourteen official AO shops, so that
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: they're my my babies in January, and everything from the
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: design and development of each of those bases, the build,
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: then all of the merchandising, and then the stuff in
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: those stores as well, which obviously help us run them
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: because there's.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: No way I can do that, mane. Those shops go
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: off insane.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's like queues to get in.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like night club cues.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we love a cue though.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, thinking those chaos in there, everyone's just grabbing. And
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Lizzie's outfit for last year's or this year's I should say,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: uh like people love that, Like is that coming back?
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: The track suits kind of variation? I will get one,
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: so some we should be getting examples seen, so.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: I'd love that try.
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: Yes, that was from our court Side range. So that
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: was new for last year, as is the jacket that
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: you were excellent jacket.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good in the rain too.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: So it was our little play in kind of fashion,
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: but with there's nods to kind of tennis heritage and
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: what you're seeing in kind of fashion with tennis.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: So yeah, it was a great success.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: What is your like, out of all the Slams from
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: a player point of view, what is like the most
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: fashionable of the of the Grand Slams.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: It's tough because they're also different because you obviously we've
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: just had Wimbledon. Yeah, so there's kind of restrictions with
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: the all white kind of code that they have. Then
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: Roland Glarius is just glamorous and yeah, really kind of historic.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: And yeah, very kind of French about it.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: And then you get ourselves in the US where they
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: go all out and they get to have loads of fun.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: It's bright, it's out there, so it is hard to compare.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: But I've got to say AO, right, yeah you do.
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: It's the summer, it's hot, it's the beginning of the year.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: Everyone loves to all the players love to be here. Yeah,
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: and so they know they can go all out and
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: kind of yeah cast some chaos on the court.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: Well, the AO was the first time that Naomi Osaka
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: could go all out. What did you think of that?
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: Just stunning? Yeah, like no words because no one expected it.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: No one knew.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: We heard that, like people knew something was happening, but
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: they didn't know what was that.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: Because she's always done kind of some little bits and pieces.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: I think it was last year at the US where
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: she had their personal life. It's la Boo boo on
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: her racket bag, the kind of inquested one. So she's
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: always liked to do something a little bit out there,
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: but this was just like whoa this is? And it
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: was it a one time thing and it hasn't been.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: She's kind of.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: So it feels like she's having a lot of fun
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: and really starting to play with her fashion, which we
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: know she's always loved, and she's playing really well at
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: the minute, and it just feels like there's this whole
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: combination of just I'm gonna enjoy every.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: Second of this.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Of her looks, which one do you have you loved?
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: I mean I did love the one in January, the Ao,
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: but the one a couple of weeks ago at Wimbledon, just.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I think the Wimbledon ones now it's.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Just kind of stunning in the detail when you look
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: at it. Obviously it was kind of Japanese inspired nods
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: to her heritage, but then I was reading an article
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: the other day that along the hem of the jacket
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: was of Oregon inspied flowers that were then encrusted with
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: jewels inside, and I was like, yes, okay, that's the detail.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: I like, yeah, do you think uh Naomi should be
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: forced to play in those outfits? You don't have to
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: answer that.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: I kind of I kind of want to say yes, yes,
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: for see how it goes. You see how it goes
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: for a bit of fun.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: But obviously I wouldn't want her to injure herself. She
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: tripped on it, Yeah, just a bit bit of light backwards.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: And well because the al one, I don't know how
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: you would describe it, and succimptly, succinctly, succinctly, sucinkly, But
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: it was the netting right, and the she had the parasol.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: It was kind of like jellyfish underwater.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think it was.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: There was a little bit of a nod to the reef.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Was a nod to the reef. But then I asked
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: her about the reef.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: She kind of was like, what was she was so
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: the netting and the parasol wed an approximation of that
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: the footage, but I wore it, and I walked around
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: the ground and I passed Tommy Paul in the hallway
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: and he looked at me and he said, what are
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: you some fucking kind of beekeeper?
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: But I feel there's any segment there for January who
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: wore it best best?
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, do you think other players now are
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: going to follow suit and like be doing these grand
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: entrances or is it just Naomi saying.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me too? I feel it wimbled in a few
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: more of them started to lean into it.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: The TFO and f its tearaways.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: That was that was awesome. Yeah, ready for shake?
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: I love that. The magic Mike entrance. How did would that? Yeah?
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: But like Novak war a beautiful blazer kind of from
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: La Cosse. Yeah, there was some There was some great stuff.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: I think this year.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: Look, it's hard you can only wear white, but I
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: think they really proved that you can have some fun
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: lots of texture and shape and kind of different kind
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: of styling nods. So I think it was it was
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: a really good year for play kids.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Great tell if this is true. There's apparently a giant
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: warehouse filled with all tennis Australian AO merchandise have you
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: been there.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of time there.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Real Is it all just like kind of boxed up
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: and putting dusty corners? Or is it like can you
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: get into it? Can you like see what's there? And
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: how far back does it date?
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: It's like the Vogue closet. It's not, No, it is.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: It's all kind of boxed up, sealed, kind of protected.
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: A lot of it we sail throughout the year online,
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: so it's anyone who wants to buy kind of anywhere
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: around the world, so that's available to them. And then
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: there are certain products and pieces that we bring back
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: in January as well.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, does this.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Date back to what the nineteen seventies? This gear?
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, not that
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: not that far back.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Okay, how far that would be cool though, that would
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: be cool to bring light.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I imagine, like vintage like Jimmy Connor's
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: style stuff.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there is a whole archive section which is kind
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: of memorabilia rackets. Someone told me a few weeks ago
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: that they brought out Jimmy he's the guy that jumped
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: in the river. Yes, they've got his shoes.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: Archived. Wow, she's pretty cool. From the from the river jump.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Smells like dirty Yarra river.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Yarra, Yarra, yarra.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah whatever.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: When I first moved here, it was like the Yarra
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: river and was like, are you trying a kid yer
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Yarra Yarra.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there we go.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I kind of ranges go back to maybe twenty seventeen.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: I thought it was like old school stuff. Rare right.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: I'd love to see the towels from like way back.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, some of your graphics from way back would be
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: so cool to bring back. Yeah, something like a like
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: a nineties kind of graphic, because that's kind of sports
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: fashion has gone real street. Do you think that we'll
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: see more of that in the.
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: Surely we might get a little taste at the US,
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: But I definitely we are inspired by what you see
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: on the court, especially colors. You start to see them
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: kind of come through. And obviously we work with some
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: of our partners who fit out some players, so you
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: get a.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Bit of a tease of like co home, Yeah what

• 30:56
  Speaker 4: of beautiful, very kind of simple, kind of classic colors

  Speaker 2: haven't seen it is Novak at the Fanatics Fest.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: I didn't know what this was, but it's like they
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: get a bunch of sports people or like just big names,
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: doesn't have to be sports people just there and they
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: just are at this festival and then people can buy
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: a ticket to it and watch them do stuff. Have
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: you seen it?
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: I've seen it on online. Yeah they did.
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: I don't know where this one was held though, so
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: they did it in New York. Yeah, I think maybe
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: it's always in New York. Yeah, but yeah, it looks
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: off the chart, right, it's insane.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: It's like Comic Con but for sports, for sports.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: And for jukes, yeah, and retail it's yeah, yeah, crazy.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, like you said, some of the people that
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: were there, and the Yea Beckham was the clips that
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: were Tom Brady. Tom Brady slapped Logan Paul for some reason.
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: Really, yeah, I mean someone needs to do it.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: I know that's true, and it was pretty satisfying to see,
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: but it was obviously staged and to promote something or other.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I wonder I'm like, do they all have
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: the same management management or something, and this is like
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: a showcase for all of the.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: People must be But I mean, the tennis was represented
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: because Novak was there, right, Novak was.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: There, So can we just have him. Let's show the
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: clip of him entering the fanatics first, it's why a name.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: Okay, he's embraced the wolf thing even more.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: Here's an embracing wolf. I feel like, you know, we
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: were talking about brand entrances before in tennis. I feel
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: like he wants to do one.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Is this or not that there's a second career coming
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: w w w w A this like at times.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's wearing like the Luchador wolf and then rips
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: that off and then.
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was giving to me, it was giving very cats.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: It felt cats to me. This was very much mestophiles ally.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Cat's just like on the ground.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was going to start singing memory, Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: and the sweatsuit do you like that?
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, it would have been better, would have been great,
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: But I think maybe that's kind of lounging at home
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: a bit more chill, rather.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Than wrestler.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: Entrance into a high.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Profile event anything else that the fanatics first?

• 40:20
  Speaker 1: What's that kind of like very choppy?
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Novak's obviously taking it easy.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Bieber wins the point.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it hit the back of the those Yeah,
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: what do you think of the boxes outside of the pants?
• 40:38

• 40:58
  Speaker 4: you see in like holiday resorts T shirts time to
• 41:01

• 41:03
  Speaker 4: to always be wearing it in some kind form of
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: T shirt.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: I love that he took his shirt off there to

  Speaker 2: play his shirts off.
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't join him they yeah, all right, anything else?
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: The last thing from the fanatics first is they do
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: have a punching machine. Let's have a look at Novak
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: the game. Yeah, yeah, like a carnival game again justin Bieber.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: He's got angry shoes, all right, he does.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: All right, seven around seven eight. That's actually not a
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: bad punch, you know that. Please tell me he beats Biaver.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: No, Tom Brady.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: Brady's gonna win this, yeah, Basiley, Wow. But is Novak
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: protecting the right hand? Maybe? Maybe he's got the hardcourt
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: us swing coming on me.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: He should have done an open palm.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, But can you lose a punching contest
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: to Bieber and still still.
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: Be I think I told you he's a cat.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: Now he's a cat. You hear the cat prowl after the.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: But then, of course Tom Brady just being an insane
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: you know, competitors football. Yeah, he's just like, I have
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: to win this f like a lot of tests.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: I noticed there are no women at the Fanatics. Still
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: observation I've made. Next one is still in the fashion world,
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: KOBALI love him such a personality. He does a sports
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: interview and then he loves the interviewer's hair, and then
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: he wants to copy it. And let's just have a
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: look at this.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: I want to be to you. I want to do
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: the same hair.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: You're gonna need to be longer, to take.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: Longer, probably down to light here, and then you'll be
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: able to get back and he yeah.
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: And then this morning on Stars, oh no, no, no, no,
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised he could get any in.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: So corn rows longer hair and you can weave hair,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: so you think, but it's like, did he just come
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: back from Balie.
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: It feels is the beads in the back.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: I wonder what the interviewer thinks thinks of the hair,
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: but also is that it's a cop appropriation?
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and then I don't know, can would you ever
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: rock the corn Rows?
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: I have once into it?

  Speaker 2: Time, I was leading into that shampaul er.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: Get me on the dance.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: Floor, lay some shaul there. If I saw a photo

• 45:07
  Speaker 2: and there were a lot of tennis stars there. Andreva
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: was there, Well, there is Mira.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah far right. I thought Eva Lee's for a second,
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: but I think I'm wrong. Oh, there's her party and
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: looks like they're playing beer pong.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: Oh so maybe they were black and everyone else will
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: why they're flipping the script right?

  Speaker 2: And that was approaching the net.
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Just quickly to the well, we want to
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: bring up a Rash. He's one of our very, very loyal,
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: committed listeners. He always answers the quizzy who segment and
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: but he got in after we had already recorded, but
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: he got the question correctly. The unseated player to win
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: Wimbledon was Boris Becker, and he did an impression of
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: Boris Becker.
• 46:17
  Speaker 5: Hallo, I am Boris Bekel. In nineteen eighty five, I
• 46:21
  Speaker 5: came to Wimbledon as an unseated seventeen year old boy
• 46:26
  Speaker 5: and everybody thought, who is this kid? Then I want
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: the whole thing, not bad eh. Maybe you have Feederer,
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: maybe you have Nadal, maybe you have Djokovic, but first
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: you had Boris.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Donki shan Arash said after Mike confidently predicted that he'd
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: be the only person sending an impression. He simply couldn't
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: let me down. Whether it sounds like Boris Becker or
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: not as highly debatable, but he committed to the bit
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: and had a great time recording it. Thank you so much,
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: a Rash. And then he also got the what fruit
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: is on the top of the Wimbledon trophy?
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: Do you know that? One?
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: Pineapple?
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: Yes? One of the more people know that, then I'd realize.
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: And symbol of wealth.
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: Pineapples have a slightly different connotation than for sertain people.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah on the cruise ship.
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go.
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: But I think because a Rash he's been so good
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: at sending in his answers and we've got him to
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: do impressions. We love you, Rash. We hope we pronounced
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: that bastade right because he is from Sweden.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, let us know. Yeah, okay, So for Quizzy
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: who a Rash, feel free to enter as you always do.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: Where and when did Bernard Tomic win his last challenger title?
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: All right, I think you're gonna stomp him. You can't
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: look it up, kind of look it up, and he's
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: got to do the Bernard Atomic voice, and.
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: You have to do the Bernardomic voice to Toddler, which
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: is it's kind of like that.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: So maybe as a bit of a surprise, if a
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: rash gets it right and does a good impersonation, I'll
