- 1:39Speaker 3: Hey, guys, Mike Goldstein, here your a wall co host,
- 1:43Speaker 3: just checking in while I'm touring through America. An amazing
- 1:46Speaker 3: French Open. Rolling Garris has been off the charts this year.
- 1:49Speaker 3: It seemed very predictable at the start, but now it's
- 1:52Speaker 3: really anybody's guests, the best to ever do it. The
- 1:56Speaker 3: goat missing the second week of the French Open, I'm
- 1:59Speaker 3: not talking about Novak Djokovic. I am, of course talking
- 2:02Speaker 3: about me not being there for the pod labor Arena
- 2:06Speaker 3: podcast this week. I apologize and I know you're lost
- 2:09Speaker 3: without me. I was wrong. I can admit when I'm wrong.
- 2:12Speaker 3: My picks at the start of the tournament were Yennick
- 2:15Speaker 3: Center and Igashvontek, and they are both out my new
- 2:18Speaker 3: predictions are very boring and safe again. I'll go with
- 2:22Speaker 3: Sabalanka and Zverev, though if I take some fun picks
- 2:26Speaker 3: that I would love to see win it, I'm gonna
- 2:28Speaker 3: say Jiao, Fonseka and Martacostik.
- 2:31Speaker 2: It's been an.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Absolutely killer French Open. Five set epics on the men's
- 2:35Speaker 3: side all over the place, just absolutely grinding battles. Just recently,
- 2:40Speaker 3: like I just watched at the time of recording this,
- 2:43Speaker 3: kalan Skaya take out Potapova in probably one of the
- 2:47Speaker 3: best women's matches of the tournament. And I'll see everyone
- 2:51Speaker 3: next week for the wrap up of the French And
- 2:55Speaker 3: I think about you all the time, and I miss
- 2:58Speaker 3: e Roll, our producer. I can't imagine the podcast will
- 3:02Speaker 3: be good without me there, but do your best.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Well, well, I'm awake.
- 3:05Speaker 1: Now that went long enough. He had time to get
- 3:10Speaker 1: back here and do the podcast.
- 3:11Speaker 2: I think.
- 3:12Speaker 1: So he's gone crazy.
- 3:14Speaker 2: He has gone crazy. I was expecting way more.
- 3:18Speaker 1: I thought he was just gonna say, hey, you guys.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Suck, but he just went full tennis. He went full tennis,
- 3:25Speaker 2: and I guess that's why we love him.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll see Mike again in the near future. Yeah,
- 3:29Speaker 1: he's got my podcast microphone. He needs to give you back.
- 3:32Speaker 2: He'll be back next week for a Roland Garris wrap up,
- 3:36Speaker 2: But he did mention all his predictions are out, including yes, sinner.
- 3:41Speaker 1: Did you want to talk about your predictions because you
- 3:43Speaker 1: were glowing when I bumped into you this morning. Yeah, Lizzie. Also,
- 3:47Speaker 1: I feel like I don't know you at all because
- 3:48Speaker 1: we got a coffee this morning and they said what
- 3:51Speaker 1: name was it under? And you said Liz.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Yeah, I always use Liz for my coffee.
- 3:55Speaker 1: That's what you turned him, and he goes, that's my
- 3:57Speaker 1: coffee name.
- 4:01Speaker 2: In case you don't know what's me. Yeah, because Lizzie
- 4:06Speaker 2: sometimes you say it. They're like okay, Lucy, and I'm like, ah, yeah,
- 4:10Speaker 2: it's just too hard, so I just say Liz. It's firm,
- 4:12Speaker 2: it's to the point. Yeah, it's only three letters they
- 4:15Speaker 2: have to write on the cup. It's easy.
- 4:17Speaker 1: It's good. It's Queensland.
- 4:19Speaker 2: It's Queensland. It Liz, it's tennis.
- 4:22Speaker 1: I don't know if the glow in your face was
- 4:23Speaker 1: because you were going by Liz and it's your alter ego,
- 4:26Speaker 1: but it could be because of all your predictions at
- 4:28Speaker 1: the French Open.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Well, my men's predictions, I don't even remember what I
- 4:32Speaker 2: predicted in the men's but I don't think they've made
- 4:34Speaker 2: it through. Oh, I said Djokovic. I wanted to Djokovic
- 4:36Speaker 2: to do the twenty five.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Yes, I think everyone kind of was yeah to happen.
- 4:40Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean sinners are obvious and that. I was like, no,
- 4:42Speaker 2: I want Djokovic to do the twenty five. But the
- 4:46Speaker 2: women's side, this.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Is this is where you come in to your shn Yeah. Yeah,
- 4:50Speaker 1: you're kind of more and more on par with the
- 4:52Speaker 1: ladies because.
- 4:53Speaker 2: Mike is safe. He's a safe bed. As he said
- 4:55Speaker 2: on his note, he always goes for safe, safe options.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Innis. That's Oh he's on the tour, is he yet?
- 5:04Speaker 2: Lowell?
- 5:04Speaker 1: Okay, we sent you on the tour just to see
- 5:07Speaker 1: what it's like without you.
- 5:09Speaker 2: But I did I did say. Siddelina big fan of love.
- 5:15Speaker 2: I think she's she's going to win it.
- 5:18Speaker 1: That's your hot take.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Yeah, she's she's really strong. I just love her like
- 5:22Speaker 2: she has this like killer instinct in her eyes. She
- 5:25Speaker 2: dominates the court. Apparently she's been spending a lot of
- 5:28Speaker 2: time in the gym. She looks really.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Fit, Okay, you're saying, like one of the best tennis
- 5:33Speaker 1: players in the world looks really she's just.
- 5:36Speaker 2: The way that she moves on.
- 5:37Speaker 1: The court, she moves around.
- 5:39Speaker 2: She's quick sticks.
- 5:40Speaker 1: You know, I love quick sticks. What a great quick sticks.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Her little feet are just.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Like tennis commentary is about quick sticks, quick sticks, quick sticks.
- 5:54Speaker 2: And Christaa, who I used to call CERTs but it's
- 5:58Speaker 2: actually Christaya. Well he was meant to be retiring this year,
- 6:01Speaker 2: but she keeps coming out with these amazing matches.
- 6:05Speaker 1: And just keeps going and she looks really, look, he
- 6:08Speaker 1: can't beat fast the time, as I've heard people.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Dated probably the tenth time with her.
- 6:15Speaker 1: Walk around the office. I still like Sablanca in the
- 6:17Speaker 1: in the in the other ladies, and I feel like
- 6:19Speaker 1: there's been some big outs obviously, which we will get to,
- 6:22Speaker 1: but I feel like the path has been cleared for
- 6:24Speaker 1: her to potentially maybe do it.
- 6:27Speaker 2: But oh on the men's side, though, I did say
- 6:30Speaker 2: in last week's episode, if you did listen, we recorded
- 6:33Speaker 2: maybe six hours before the Cinner match, and Mike was like, yeah,
- 6:36Speaker 2: Sinna's going to go through, and I'm like, well, we
- 6:38Speaker 2: know he doesn't like the heat.
- 6:41Speaker 4: It is hot. We know he doesn't like the heat.
- 6:43Speaker 2: And well, well well and well, well, well doesn't like
- 6:47Speaker 2: the heat. He does not like the heat.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I mean, so he lost to Cerendula from art Tina. Yes,
- 6:54Speaker 1: adopted country. Obviously he likes the heat. But Sinner also
- 6:58Speaker 1: was like, it wasn't that hot. I don't know. He
- 7:00Speaker 1: saw the press conference after he was dominating, leading by
- 7:03Speaker 1: two sets, and then literally the wheels couldn't have come
- 7:05Speaker 1: off further terrible.
- 7:07Speaker 2: He's fighting for his life.
- 7:08Speaker 1: And then he's it was older in Australia and I'm like, dude,
- 7:11Speaker 1: you die, you almost died.
- 7:13Speaker 2: It was hotter in Australia. But we put the roof
- 7:15Speaker 2: over you.
- 7:15Speaker 1: That's it.
- 7:16Speaker 2: And it was like we put an umbrella. Yeah, come
- 7:18Speaker 2: on mate, we looked after you. We look like you
- 7:21Speaker 2: in Australia.
- 7:22Speaker 1: Also, Djokovic is out the big story.
- 7:25Speaker 2: It was also two sets up.
- 7:27Speaker 1: But he's an old man now, so I feel like
- 7:29Speaker 1: he's thirty nine.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I know he does have an excuse, but he
- 7:32Speaker 2: looked good.
- 7:32Speaker 1: He did look good. But I think that's the that's
- 7:35Speaker 1: kind of the way it goes, you know, like as
- 7:36Speaker 1: you get older and into your late thirties, it's like yeah,
- 7:38Speaker 1: you can't run as fast. You can't run as fast.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Maybe you've got limited time. He also said he doesn't
- 7:42Speaker 1: know if he's going to be back.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Yeah, And what's the saying that you.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Can always beat father time? I believe it's the same
- 7:50Speaker 1: father time. He's never won a match.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Especially against a very fit.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Teenager, exactly, a very fit young teenager.
- 7:59Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I mean when you watch a teen the enthusiasm of
- 8:02Speaker 1: a teenager versus like someone who's almost forty, it's like, come.
- 8:06Speaker 2: On, yeah, it's like hangovers. Like you sa teenager bounce
- 8:09Speaker 2: back from a hangover, It's like a teenager bouncing back
- 8:12Speaker 2: from two sets down.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Yeasy. It's as funny as you get older. Like I
- 8:16Speaker 1: saw it. I was at the I was walking through
- 8:18Speaker 1: a park the other day and this kid like jumped
- 8:20Speaker 1: off the top of the play equipment and like from
- 8:23Speaker 1: was so high and like rolled over and then just
- 8:25Speaker 1: got up and kept running. And I thought, I was, like,
- 8:27Speaker 1: I haven't jumped off anything for like twenty years, you know.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Like and if you did, it wouldn't be it would
- 8:34Speaker 2: ruin me.
- 8:36Speaker 1: I would have to go to hospital probably Okay for.
- 8:38Speaker 2: The time by the time and our friend demons it.
- 8:43Speaker 2: I feel like this is such a missed opportunity.
- 8:45Speaker 1: The Demon's got some demons.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Demons, Yeah, he does. Something's happening with the Demon because
- 8:50Speaker 2: I feel like there was this pressure which I was
- 8:52Speaker 2: I think creating some really amazing games because obviously our
- 8:56Speaker 2: Croz is out, Center is out, Djokovic is out, and
- 8:59Speaker 2: there's all the like players coming through that are playing
- 9:02Speaker 2: the games of their lives.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think.
- 9:04Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like Demon could have could
- 9:07Speaker 2: have gone really far in this well.
- 9:08Speaker 1: I reckon. So my hot take on the Demon is
- 9:11Speaker 1: that he needs to pull out. You know that you're
- 9:13Speaker 1: talking about these games of their lives that people are playing.
- 9:15Speaker 1: It's like the Demon, I think, will stand up and
- 9:18Speaker 1: deliver his pretty much his his level of tennis whenever
- 9:22Speaker 1: he plays. But the point is, it's like you would
- 9:24Speaker 1: almost want someone that could give you a ten one
- 9:27Speaker 1: day and a three the other day, as opposed to
- 9:30Speaker 1: someone that just gives you a seven every time they play,
- 9:33Speaker 1: because at least if they give you the ten, it's like,
- 9:34Speaker 1: oh my god, they could beat anyone any day of
- 9:37Speaker 1: the week. But if they give you a seven, it's
- 9:38Speaker 1: like the guys that are above him their normal player
- 9:41Speaker 1: is probably almost always going to beat him, so you'd
- 9:43Speaker 1: love to see him have a bit more variety in
- 9:46Speaker 1: his game. Also, I think maybe he needs to deflect
- 9:50Speaker 1: to Spain. I think he needs to change of scenery
- 9:53Speaker 1: or something. I know that he's an Australian open podcast.
- 9:58Speaker 1: He needs something different, you know, you.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Like address, You're like, this is my hot take, and
- 10:02Speaker 2: then you said about that, and then you're like, actually
- 10:07Speaker 2: defect to Spain. I'm like, okay, now we're doing this.
- 10:10Speaker 2: We're doing the fort Chili hot take. Wow, this is
- 10:15Speaker 2: a spicy, spicy alert.
- 10:17Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about that. It just came to me
- 10:18Speaker 1: and I was thinking about it. But I do think
- 10:21Speaker 1: it's like change is as good as a holiday sometimes,
- 10:23Speaker 1: you know, you just need a fire. No disrespect to
- 10:26Speaker 1: us good folk here, I'm claiming like I've been part
- 10:29Speaker 1: of the demonal journey, like I haven't, But I'm just
- 10:32Speaker 1: saying a change of scenery is sometimes as good as
- 10:35Speaker 1: a holiday. Maybe if he, if he goes to Spain,
- 10:37Speaker 1: represents them. The Spanish are doing quite good at tennis,
- 10:41Speaker 1: they very very good at so maybe like he should
- 10:44Speaker 1: represent them and maybe things would go a bit better
- 10:45Speaker 1: for him, but then we wouldn't like him as much
- 10:48Speaker 1: or be talking about someone.
- 10:50Speaker 2: Australian tennis. We would we wouldn't even let them in.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Yeah yeah the outside courts. Okay, no air it's a
- 10:58Speaker 1: stupid thing. Yeah, no air con. But yeah, he's got
- 11:00Speaker 1: some problems and I look hopefully maybe wimbled and he'll
- 11:03Speaker 1: play better quick at court. Maybe he's got a better
- 11:05Speaker 1: chance there and a clay. It's a bit tricky, but
- 11:07Speaker 1: you'd love to se him do well.
- 11:08Speaker 2: You need a bit of fire.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe you could give.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Him there and slap him.
- 11:15Speaker 1: What the hell you're doing?
- 11:16Speaker 2: Just get your ship together, like we'll go like state
- 11:20Speaker 2: of origin.
- 11:22Speaker 1: Oh, like a gust Gould style or sorry, you're thinking
- 11:25Speaker 1: like a warm up in there?
- 11:26Speaker 2: Yeah you know when they change little shoulder taps. Oh yeah, yeah.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Yeah, I know what you're saying. I know what just
- 11:33Speaker 1: like some kind of like shoulder tap bang bang, Come on,
- 11:36Speaker 1: pump up. I would like to see a Gus Gould
- 11:37Speaker 1: style state of origin. Pump up maybe for the demon
- 11:41Speaker 1: just be like, this is what it's about.
- 11:43Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't believe you brought Gus Gould into this.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Yeh's great. This is very relatable. To any of our
- 11:50Speaker 2: overseas listeners.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Oh yeah, really get into depth with the Channel nine
- 11:55Speaker 1: NRL Common trip and people were like, oh does everyone
- 11:59Speaker 1: in Melbourne talk about that? Absolutely not its Moura Sydney
- 12:02Speaker 1: and Brisbane thing. Yeah, what's something I wanted to point out?
- 12:07Speaker 1: It was the Italian player Koboli. Now, as the time
- 12:09Speaker 1: of recording, he won his fourth round match, so he's
- 12:12Speaker 1: doing well. But also he said something in his postmatch
- 12:16Speaker 1: interview and we've got it right here to play Errol's
- 12:19Speaker 1: whipped it up, which really it really gave me a
- 12:21Speaker 1: little giggle. We've got it right here.
- 12:22Speaker 2: The only thing that I under stood today is never.
- 12:28Speaker 1: The imagine. It's never done. And I almost shit on
- 12:31Speaker 1: my pants.
- 12:32Speaker 2: And I almost shit on my pants on my pants.
- 12:36Speaker 2: He's getting real raw, He's getting real raw.
- 12:40Speaker 1: It is like it's one of the great joys in
- 12:42Speaker 1: life to make fun of people that are like speaking
- 12:46Speaker 1: not their first line, and it shouldn't be because it's
- 12:49Speaker 1: like it because they're trying their best, do you know
- 12:52Speaker 1: what I mean? But it's like I try to speak
- 12:53Speaker 1: another language, people just tear me to shreds and laugh
- 12:55Speaker 1: at me. So I feel like it's fun to be
- 12:57Speaker 1: like he said he's gonna shit on ship on.
- 13:00Speaker 2: His fans is funny, but also it's not. It's not
- 13:04Speaker 2: the language, it's the content. What you Why are you
- 13:09Speaker 2: bringing that up in your post match? Yes that's a friend,
- 13:13Speaker 2: that's a group chat.
- 13:14Speaker 1: But you know what's happened. It's like he was talking
- 13:15Speaker 1: to some people that speak English and they said, I
- 13:18Speaker 1: was so nervous, I shat my pants and he was like,
- 13:21Speaker 1: oh wow. And then he didn't test, he didn't road
- 13:25Speaker 1: test it. He didn't say it to a few friends
- 13:27Speaker 1: just at a cafe. He was like, I'm going to
- 13:29Speaker 1: say it at the French Open.
- 13:32Speaker 2: When I speak English the most. In my post match interviews,
- 13:36Speaker 2: I ship on my I almost shipped on my phone pants. Yeah.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Also, it's a great one. It's a great mistake because
- 13:41Speaker 1: you can't help but just visualize.
- 13:43Speaker 2: It's endearing, it's beautiful, it's really I like him. Now
- 13:48Speaker 2: we've got Hotter reaching the quarter finals, teenager, he's so good. Yeah,
- 13:55Speaker 2: another another raffer for the Spanish.
- 13:57Speaker 1: I mean, that's what I mean, That's why the Demon's
- 13:58Speaker 1: got to get over there. The Spanish so great. A
- 14:00Speaker 1: nineteen year old I know this. I mean it's imagine
- 14:03Speaker 1: it is something at nineteen. It's great, he's got to
- 14:06Speaker 1: place Farev in the quarters.
- 14:08Speaker 2: Who's like obviously the favorite.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Now, well this is his time, isn't it.
- 14:13Speaker 2: There's too much pressure. I reckon, there's too much pressure,
- 14:16Speaker 2: you reckon. This is my gut telling me. The Lizzie Telepathy.
- 14:20Speaker 1: Ball okay, which has been pretty successfully successful so.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Far, Yeah, is telling me that Zverev is going to
- 14:28Speaker 2: crumble because the pressure.
- 14:30Speaker 1: Gets too much. You think he's clipped that up clip
- 14:33Speaker 1: that click that clip that. Where do you get when
- 14:37Speaker 1: are we putting that out that clip? Or is that
- 14:39Speaker 1: just for you to watch that?
- 14:41Speaker 2: That's just for me that you don't have many times
- 14:43Speaker 2: I've watched that sooner clip. Oh yeah, I go into
- 14:45Speaker 2: YouTube and I'm like, yeah, I predicted that.
- 14:48Speaker 1: Also, he keeps rough housing the ball kids.
- 14:51Speaker 2: You know, I watched this. I don't think I think
- 14:55Speaker 2: the girl was just in the way and he tried
- 14:57Speaker 2: to goe other way and then she moved into the way.
- 14:59Speaker 1: I I think it's a classic apologetic behavior. Yeah yeah, Oh,
- 15:04Speaker 1: let's watch the clips.
- 15:05Speaker 2: Okay, CSI hold up, I'm inconclusive.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Possibly draw an opinion from that.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Oh okay, do you know what has happened. She's tried
- 15:29Speaker 2: to move, but there's these weird sandbags.
- 15:32Speaker 1: Clay back with the amount of clay.
- 15:34Speaker 2: There, and she's tripped over that.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Regardless of whether there was physical contact made, he didn't
- 15:42Speaker 1: try to get out of her way in any way.
- 15:44Speaker 1: I feel like he was like, you need to get
- 15:46Speaker 1: out of my way because I'm a big important tennis player.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, and you're a little girl ball girl,
- 15:52Speaker 2: which is fair. I don't know. It feels very French.
- 16:01Speaker 5: Open totally to treat them, to treat the ball kids terrible.
- 16:04Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, well that wouldn't fly.
- 16:06Speaker 1: That wouldn't fly. Another tournaments, No, gosh, you don't he
- 16:10Speaker 1: the Australian Open ball kids are more important than the place.
- 16:12Speaker 2: You've got to experience.
- 16:13Speaker 1: It was unbelievable. They walk around and they celebrities. People
- 16:16Speaker 1: are getting.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Photos, twenty seven dollars a day at the cafe. I
- 16:19Speaker 2: know it's getting chips for lunch and didn't.
- 16:22Speaker 6: I'm going to stick up for Oh, okay, Errol didn't
- 16:27Speaker 6: do anything wrong.
- 16:28Speaker 1: But Errol's saying he didn't touch.
- 16:34Speaker 2: Gesturing to his probably his players.
- 16:36Speaker 1: Yeah, she tripped up on the carpet.
- 16:38Speaker 2: She did trip on the carpet.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Yeah, well, this feels like it feels like Lizzie's taken.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Lizzie's take wasn't as succinct as that. Lizzie was just
- 16:47Speaker 1: like he's fantastic and hasn't done anything wrong.
- 16:49Speaker 2: Yeah, go hold up with the wins. Someone I did
- 17:02Speaker 2: want to go through was Casper Rude, but unfortunately lost
- 17:07Speaker 2: to someone who I also love, Onzeca. But there were
- 17:10Speaker 2: a couple of weird line calls going on. So the
- 17:14Speaker 2: French Open is the only tournament that doesn't have the
- 17:17Speaker 2: electronic lineing system.
- 17:19Speaker 1: You love it. It's original, It's what it's all about.
- 17:21Speaker 1: As clay, you can kind of see the ball, but
- 17:24Speaker 1: it's not perfect.
- 17:26Speaker 2: You can kind of see it. I don't I don't
- 17:28Speaker 2: know it's causing problems. I do love the drama. I
- 17:30Speaker 2: do love that the umpire has to like get out of.
- 17:32Speaker 1: This, getting out of this. See it's so funny.
- 17:35Speaker 2: So funny, like and sometimes like straight after the so
- 17:38Speaker 2: straight after another. What am I trying to say?
- 17:41Speaker 1: Straight after a point, like you've already gotten out and
- 17:43Speaker 1: then they have to go out again. To me, it's
- 17:44Speaker 1: got real like parent like threatening their children energy. It's
- 17:49Speaker 1: like don't make me come over.
- 17:50Speaker 2: There, and then they have to come over to see
- 17:52Speaker 2: it went out, of course, play fairly.
- 17:54Speaker 1: The thing with the umpire though, is that, like tennis
- 17:56Speaker 1: is evolved to be this, you know, it's this huge
- 17:58Speaker 1: game where you know, it does have a bit of
- 18:00Speaker 1: a like a cry baby reputation about it, but it
- 18:03Speaker 1: did start originally with this kind of like respectful nature
- 18:07Speaker 1: of like you call points in and out yourself, and
- 18:09Speaker 1: it still does. If you and I went to play,
- 18:10Speaker 1: you'd say, no, that was in, that was out. Yet
- 18:12Speaker 1: these guys are just arguing over it all the time,
- 18:14Speaker 1: and then the umpire has got to get out and
- 18:15Speaker 1: be like, I'll go and have a look.
- 18:18Speaker 2: But what happened with this one was a member of
- 18:21Speaker 2: the crowd actually called it out.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Getting somewhere.
- 18:26Speaker 2: A member of the crowd went.
- 18:30Speaker 1: So funny, and then.
- 18:36Speaker 2: The umpire checked it and it was ruled in. But
- 18:40Speaker 2: then when they did do the replay, it looked out.
- 18:47Speaker 1: Yeah, well maybe that maybe the crowd member isn't the
- 18:51Speaker 1: most qualified person to make It kind of reminds you
- 18:54Speaker 1: of like I used to when I used to play
- 18:56Speaker 1: football occasionally, like afl if some if the other team
- 18:59Speaker 1: had the but they couldn't really see what was going on.
- 19:01Speaker 1: I would say here, oh, trick them, so then they
- 19:05Speaker 1: would pass and be like Loe, gotcha. Yeah this has
- 19:09Speaker 1: got that energy from it, or it's the energy of
- 19:12Speaker 1: like maybe there's the French Open could become a tennis
- 19:15Speaker 1: mournament where you that's just part of it.
- 19:16Speaker 2: As you get a special c VIP.
- 19:19Speaker 1: Yeah, you get to the line course, you pay a
- 19:23Speaker 1: bit more. We're always looking about how to upsell here
- 19:26Speaker 1: an entertainment experience.
- 19:28Speaker 2: Totally incredible.
- 19:29Speaker 1: What it's like. It's like two hundred dollars for a
- 19:31Speaker 1: ticket to the quarter final, but it's two and a
- 19:33Speaker 1: half thousand dollars and you get to be the chair umpire.
- 19:37Speaker 2: Yeah they should be cheap of those tickets. You're working
- 19:41Speaker 2: yourself checkout.
- 19:42Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, okay, so it's free if you want to
- 19:44Speaker 1: be the chair umpire chair umpire every year.
- 19:48Speaker 2: But the concentration you'd have to have, you can't scroll,
- 19:52Speaker 2: there's no scrolling, there's no taking photos, don't work anyway.
- 19:56Speaker 1: It is pretty funny. I do respect it, and I'm
- 19:58Speaker 1: going to do it next time tennis. I feel like
- 20:00Speaker 1: they should that. The umpie must have said it.
- 20:03Speaker 2: No one else you could do it on the outer
- 20:05Speaker 2: courts for sure.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, out of this world?
- 20:11Speaker 2: Great?
- 20:11Speaker 1: Did you think I was talking about the game? Oh guys,
- 20:14Speaker 1: keep playing? Oh you were on the ropes the person
- 20:16Speaker 1: I'm going for. What are the odds of that? Yeah?
- 20:20Speaker 1: God damn it him of the set. But yeah, okay,
- 20:23Speaker 1: a bit of fun though. You know, I think the
- 20:25Speaker 1: net positive for the world that we're talking about.
- 20:27Speaker 6: This, Yeah, net positive positive. You got to look at
- 20:30Speaker 6: that net positive for the world.
- 20:32Speaker 1: No, you've got to think about that because, like, yes,
- 20:34Speaker 1: it might not have had the correct results of the match,
- 20:37Speaker 1: but net positive is that I think of all the
- 20:40Speaker 1: people that work in the tennis industry that now have
- 20:42Speaker 1: something to talk about, beautiful, net.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Positive, net positive. Well this is a net negative.
- 20:51Speaker 1: No, no, no.
- 20:53Speaker 2: We're going into women's what what is? What do we
- 20:56Speaker 2: say for women's women's news? Now to the women's side,
- 21:05Speaker 2: the women's side, beautiful stuff.
- 21:07Speaker 1: You nailed that. Mike doesn't need to be here.
- 21:11Speaker 2: He does not stay in America.
- 21:14Speaker 1: That's been some upsets. Yeah, eager eager out now that is,
- 21:18Speaker 1: you know, because she's such a killer on clay.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Killer on clay, four times, four time.
- 21:22Speaker 1: Champion and now she's out, and it really kind of
- 21:24Speaker 1: opens it up. Coco has also departed. Now, did you
- 21:28Speaker 1: predict Coco as well?
- 21:30Speaker 2: No, Mike liked a bit of Coco. Really, he had
- 21:33Speaker 2: that in his fun picks Rebuccer I.
- 21:38Speaker 1: Mean Mike's a big Rebeccaa fan as.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Well, all his predictions. Yes, I reckon.
- 21:42Speaker 1: If you want to start putting money on tennis whatever
- 21:44Speaker 1: Mike says, just don't do that. Ignore that.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Yeah, his predictions aren't fun. They're never fun. Sabal Anca
- 21:53Speaker 2: beats Osaka just overnight. Yes, uh, this was the first
- 21:57Speaker 2: night match for women in the main core.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Do you like the night match?
- 22:02Speaker 2: Yeah, it's first night match in three years.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Why haven't they been doing it?
- 22:06Speaker 2: Because they're women. It's very French.
- 22:10Speaker 1: I know your opinion on men and women. Yeah, you
- 22:13Speaker 1: don't need to go into women don't deserve the night'sl
- 22:16Speaker 1: like women.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Don't deserve the night's loot. No, this it's so crazy.
- 22:20Speaker 2: It's so crazy that women's tennis hasn't had a game
- 22:23Speaker 2: in the main arena.
- 22:24Speaker 1: But this is the French we're talking about. Do you
- 22:26Speaker 1: know what I mean? They're like romance of They're like
- 22:29Speaker 1: the women's Denis said, not for me, not for me,
- 22:32Speaker 1: that's the wrong men.
- 22:33Speaker 2: Yeah, well well they did. This is the same tournament though,
- 22:37Speaker 2: that did find the Paraguayan player Villejo Adolf Daniel Vierjo
- 22:45Speaker 2: like sixty five thousand euro for saying that a woman
- 22:50Speaker 2: shouldn't have reft his game but umpireedies match, so it should. Yeah,
- 22:57Speaker 2: he said that it should have been a man because
- 22:58Speaker 2: it went crazy.
- 22:59Speaker 1: But even the French would be like, that's a bit
- 23:01Speaker 1: bang out of all that is.
- 23:03Speaker 2: That is sixty five thousand euros bang out of it.
- 23:05Speaker 1: I think they're like, yeah, we don't want the women
- 23:07Speaker 1: to play in primetime, but you can't be saying stuff
- 23:09Speaker 1: like that.
- 23:12Speaker 2: When some you're loose.
- 23:13Speaker 1: Yeah, the French are the I mean, you know, the
- 23:15Speaker 1: French do have morals, you know, but they're very traditional,
- 23:18Speaker 1: very traditional.
- 23:18Speaker 6: But yeah, I mean the electronic line call is not
- 23:22Speaker 6: there exactly exactly.
- 23:24Speaker 1: But anyway, maybe they'll start playing some more games at night.
- 23:26Speaker 1: It does seem crazy, It is.
- 23:28Speaker 2: Crazy, especially like the director of their tournament, Emilie Morismo
- 23:32Speaker 2: woman a woman.
- 23:33Speaker 1: I just wonder if it's like if they're doing it
- 23:35Speaker 1: based on like tradition, vibe, or it's purely on like
- 23:39Speaker 1: a commercial basis, But I just don't I don't believe
- 23:42Speaker 1: that the like not playing women's tennis in primetime is
- 23:45Speaker 1: going to have that much of a like a negative
- 23:47Speaker 1: downturn in viewers. Like, I really don't believe it. I
- 23:50Speaker 1: feel like we all consume it the same way.
- 23:52Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it's just not as long.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Well that's it. Yeah, you can sell less advertising. But yeah, anyway,
- 23:58Speaker 1: I feel like the table has said I mentioned this earlier.
- 24:01Speaker 1: For Sabolenka to do it to win the French I
- 24:03Speaker 1: just think she's got a great chance to win.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Yes, I agree, Yeah, yeah, thank you crazy but switt
- 24:09Speaker 2: Alitas my girl.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to back you gotta believe you're crystal ball.
- 24:13Speaker 2: Yeah, and Christaia, I'd love to see her win. She's
- 24:17Speaker 2: she's awesome. But speaking of sponsors, son mez tripping over
- 24:23Speaker 2: the sponsors.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Oh so good, so good.
- 24:26Speaker 2: But it's the craziest thing. So there's this like little
- 24:29Speaker 2: lacost board at the back of the courts. They're like
- 24:31Speaker 2: little I guess they're little foam thing.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that would just be completely made out
- 24:35Speaker 1: of phone, but they would if you hit them, it
- 24:37Speaker 1: wouldn't hurt, but it would still like disrupt your passage.
- 24:40Speaker 2: Yeah, you could still sprain an ankle, yeah yeah, yeah,
- 24:43Speaker 2: quite easily. And then she's tripped over it in a
- 24:46Speaker 2: doubles game and she had to retire. I think from
- 24:49Speaker 2: that game, the crazy thing is is that they're still there,
- 24:54Speaker 2: these little trip hazards. Like you would think after that
- 24:58Speaker 2: that they would get rid of all of them. But
- 25:00Speaker 2: I feel like the cost is like, sorry, guys, that
- 25:02Speaker 2: was the deal.
- 25:03Speaker 1: Well I think they hundred percent they're like the deal.
- 25:05Speaker 1: It's also like, if we look at it right now,
- 25:08Speaker 1: it's not just like a little trip. It's like a
- 25:10Speaker 1: full blon fall. It's a face plan. She hits the
- 25:13Speaker 1: the cost thing and just goes straight into the wall.
- 25:15Speaker 1: I agree that it's like should they move them? But
- 25:18Speaker 1: also I'm like, you know, if everyone has to deal
- 25:21Speaker 1: with it, everyone has to deal with it. I don't know,
- 25:23Speaker 1: but yeah, think about the money, the cost of bringing
- 25:25Speaker 1: in We're all about money here.
- 25:27Speaker 2: Yeah, do you think it? Heaps of people are buying
- 25:30Speaker 2: more lo cost stuff because they saw someone trip over the.
- 25:34Speaker 1: I mean it's made me think about them a little
- 25:36Speaker 1: bit more. It's a big it's a big face plan.
- 25:40Speaker 1: And if we want to look once again at the net,
- 25:42Speaker 1: positive to the ton. If she doesn't trip and it's
- 25:49Speaker 1: just a normal doubles match and it's like business as usual,
- 25:53Speaker 1: you know, probably not getting that much publication. She trips,
- 25:55Speaker 1: bangs into the wall, retires, everyone's talking about it, French open,
- 26:00Speaker 1: well done.
- 26:01Speaker 2: Well done. Lastly, do you want to talk about Asaka's outfits?
- 26:04Speaker 1: Oh my god, I feel like it needs to be
- 26:06Speaker 1: touched upon because it is insane.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Well, I didn't love the first one. I didn't love
- 26:10Speaker 2: the black one, but I did. I have loved everyone since.
- 26:14Speaker 1: What is the Is it some kind of new designer
- 26:17Speaker 1: that has partnered with her, Like I think she's.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Had this designer and she gets to do a special
- 26:24Speaker 2: Nike outfit, Like she doesn't have to wear what they're
- 26:27Speaker 2: bringing out. Okay, you know, she gets to do her
- 26:29Speaker 2: own thing, and she does.
- 26:30Speaker 1: It'd be crazy if they were bringing that out as
- 26:32Speaker 1: a line of like clothing.
- 26:34Speaker 2: The sparkle dress.
- 26:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the dress. I mean the dress. It's not bad,
- 26:37Speaker 1: but it is like it's a lot, you know, it's
- 26:40Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, especially considering we're about to go to
- 26:42Speaker 1: Wimbledon where it's like everyone wear white. Please.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder if she can't do anything in Wimbledon,
- 26:47Speaker 2: can she an.
- 26:48Speaker 1: Well, I guess you could as long as it's white. Yeah,
- 26:51Speaker 1: But I do think it's kind of it's kind of exciting.
- 26:53Speaker 1: The outfits.
- 26:54Speaker 2: I kind of love it.
- 26:54Speaker 1: It's kind of like UFC. It's a bat UFC. It's
- 26:57Speaker 1: a bit NBA. You know, the NBA players, Like they're
- 26:59Speaker 1: in there like suits and they're like wearing the stuff
- 27:01Speaker 1: like Melbourn Demons. It's Melbourne Demons, It's Marva, It's everything,
- 27:06Speaker 1: you know.
- 27:07Speaker 2: I love the.
- 27:09Speaker 1: I love the vibe. I actually do think it's great
- 27:11Speaker 1: for tennis and I would like to see more of
- 27:12Speaker 1: it and it would be cool, especially for these top
- 27:14Speaker 1: players that are earning. Just I get it that you know,
- 27:17Speaker 1: if you're coming through, you probably can't afford or don't
- 27:19Speaker 1: have a sponsors deal to do it. But what a
- 27:20Speaker 1: cool little vibe to be like, oh, what are they
- 27:22Speaker 1: wearing before they come out? Yeah, totally on a cool track.
- 27:26Speaker 2: So change the song up like I want to. I
- 27:29Speaker 2: want them to have their own songs coming out.
- 27:31Speaker 1: So you want it to be proper combat sports fighting
- 27:33Speaker 1: Bruce Buffer out the front, being like coming to the corner. Yeah,
- 27:37Speaker 1: in the red corner is Liz Who and then it
- 27:41Speaker 1: says like, well, come to the jungle and then you
- 27:44Speaker 1: come out.
- 27:45Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, well actually it'd be who let the
- 27:47Speaker 2: dogs out?
- 27:48Speaker 1: Oh, of course, of course, I agree. I think that's cool.
- 27:52Speaker 1: I think that'd be cool. Maybe we can talk to
- 27:54Speaker 1: the new bots of tennis after that. Oh yeah, that's
- 27:57Speaker 1: actually I mean, if anyone's going to do it.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I can't wait for the Harvey Norman replays personally.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Got that on the Hoby Nor that's so good.
- 28:17Speaker 2: Oh, got a new segment. I don't know if you've
- 28:18Speaker 2: seen this.
- 28:19Speaker 1: Better not beams.
- 28:23Speaker 2: Oh it's not Lizzy's anagrams r I P Mike's.
- 28:27Speaker 1: Anagram So it's gone officially or I.
- 28:30Speaker 2: Don't think it was officially gone, but it was kind
- 28:33Speaker 2: of phased out. It just didn't appear in the rundown.
- 28:35Speaker 1: Yeah, it suck. It sucked, and then you were too supportive.
- 28:39Speaker 2: I loved it. I loved the vision of Mike sitting
- 28:42Speaker 2: at home with this little notebook going thinking about little words,
- 28:46Speaker 2: crunching crunching letters.
- 28:49Speaker 1: Anagrams suck because at no point they're only fun for
- 28:52Speaker 1: the person that makes up the anagram. Everyone else just
- 28:55Speaker 1: at the end goes, ah, yeah, I see what you did.
- 28:57Speaker 1: You know, it's not like the journey. There is not
- 29:01Speaker 1: fun at the end.
- 29:01Speaker 2: You just go well, I gave him more positive you
- 29:05Speaker 2: love it. I love it. I was like I loved
- 29:07Speaker 2: it anyway. I've got a new segment called Approaching the
- 29:10Speaker 2: Next featuring Lizzie Who.
- 29:14Speaker 1: That's wow.
- 29:15Speaker 2: And I look at fun things from the Internet about tennis.
- 29:19Speaker 1: About tennis Reddit for him.
- 29:24Speaker 2: So the first one is about Casper Rude. Love you.
- 29:28Speaker 2: Casper Rude actually one of my favorite men's tennis players.
- 29:31Speaker 2: But I love this footage of him fighting for his
- 29:34Speaker 2: life literally on the court. It's so hot. He was
- 29:37Speaker 2: in his first match at Roland Garris. I don't think
- 29:40Speaker 2: this is but he was. He was really hot this tournament.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Yeah they're all he's.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Sweating, Yeah, they're all hunky and hot. But he's got
- 29:46Speaker 2: the ice back on his head. But can you hear
- 29:48Speaker 2: the song playing in the background.
- 29:50Speaker 1: I can't let me, let me, let me listen, Brittany
- 29:57Speaker 1: that rules.
- 29:59Speaker 2: He's fighting for his life and he's just got Brittany
- 30:02Speaker 2: one more time, maybe one more time playing in the background,
- 30:05Speaker 2: and the little girl in the background is just like
- 30:07Speaker 2: living her moment, loving that song, really disappointed when the
- 30:11Speaker 2: song cuts.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Out yeah and the tennis interrupts her favorite song. Can
- 30:14Speaker 1: I say to Casper? Do just there? You're like, wow,
- 30:18Speaker 1: what a hero? That is my experience with like every
- 30:20Speaker 1: gym class I've ever done in my life. It's like
- 30:24Speaker 1: me fighting for my life for you. Yeah, I need
- 30:26Speaker 1: a towel, like I'm going to die. And then in
- 30:28Speaker 1: the background it's just like it and I'm like, oh,
- 30:33Speaker 1: my brain is going to explode.
- 30:35Speaker 2: Yeah, that's probably a very relatable.
- 30:37Speaker 1: It's like, welcome Casper, welcome, yeah, bf TEA.
- 30:42Speaker 6: Actually, yeah, that's my class BFT or you go, yeah,
- 30:46Speaker 6: that's good, good, you should come along.

- 30:56Speaker 1: He's up to right now? Just like hanging out the
- 31:00Speaker 1: cool room at a BWS.
- 31:01Speaker 2: Probably isn't the meat.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Two weeks ago bulk.
- 31:10Speaker 2: By Butchers and you go in and you have to
- 31:12Speaker 2: put on like a big puffet jacket because.

- 31:55Speaker 2: he wants and he's like, I'm going to go for
- 31:58Speaker 2: the vesper. It's the quickest way around in Monaco. Good
- 32:01Speaker 2: on all right now. So that's one of my favorite
- 32:04Speaker 2: people in Bernard Tomic.
- 32:08Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you do love Bernie, don't you?
- 32:10Speaker 2: Who doesn't? I just you know, as a character, he's great.
- 32:15Speaker 1: It's a net positive. It's what he is. He is
- 32:17Speaker 1: a net positive.
- 32:19Speaker 2: He is really actually I'm gonna take but he's playing
- 32:25Speaker 2: this game. He's playing.
- 32:26Speaker 1: I'm loving his comeback by the way.
- 32:28Speaker 2: He's just grinding it out. That's why people love him,
- 32:30Speaker 2: because he's got this like sort of cult culty internet vibe.
- 32:35Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's like, you know, it's warts and all.
- 32:37Speaker 1: It hasn't gone to plan for him.
- 32:39Speaker 2: No.
- 32:40Speaker 1: I like it that it's like who knows, you know
- 32:41Speaker 1: what he's been up to he's had injuries, he's had
- 32:44Speaker 1: life problems, and he's just now playing tennis because I
- 32:46Speaker 1: guess he likes tennis like he loves tennis that he's
- 32:49Speaker 1: still playing. Yeah, it's amazing.
- 32:52Speaker 2: He loves it and people love him. What do they
- 32:55Speaker 2: call him, like the chang Do They call him like

- 33:01Speaker 1: Tomic, the tank engine.
- 33:03Speaker 2: I love.
- 33:04Speaker 1: I don't think that's it.

- 33:07Speaker 2: Do King or something like that.
- 33:09Speaker 1: The chang Do King. Why do they call him that?
- 33:12Speaker 2: I guess I don't, okay, chang Do Champ. They call
- 33:17Speaker 2: him Lord Tomic and the chang Do Champ. But whenever,
- 33:19Speaker 2: like there's a video online, is like he'll always be
- 33:21Speaker 2: my cheng Do chair, Lord Tom, like he has the
- 33:25Speaker 2: most positive comments totally ironically, but they love him.
- 33:31Speaker 1: They just respect him.
- 33:32Speaker 2: I kind of I kind of love it because he
- 33:33Speaker 2: is he's just like one of the most honest people
- 33:36Speaker 2: out there.
- 33:37Speaker 1: He's just out there.
- 33:37Speaker 2: He just says whatever, and this this video is no different.
- 33:40Speaker 1: He's pure, he's authentic.
- 33:42Speaker 2: He is very pure and authentic, and he's playing this
- 33:45Speaker 2: challenger and he just goes up to the umpire and
- 33:48Speaker 2: is like, I don't want to play anymore. Basically, I
- 33:52Speaker 2: really really want.
- 33:53Speaker 4: To pull out, but I don't want to do it
- 33:54Speaker 4: again to him like I had to be on, I
- 34:00Speaker 4: don't want to do it, very respainful and it happened
- 34:04Speaker 4: same here. I really want to take a b DA,
- 34:10Speaker 4: go to Tyler. I don't want to be here.

- 34:24Speaker 4: for me to move run.
- 34:27Speaker 1: No, okay, that does rule. What he's doing is he's like,
- 34:40Speaker 1: I don't want to do it. He's guy, this is
- 34:42Speaker 1: what I want.
- 34:42Speaker 2: To do him two years ago. I can't do it.
- 34:45Speaker 1: I can't do it, but he's asking. He wants the
- 34:47Speaker 1: umpire to say just do it. It's like when I'm
- 34:50Speaker 1: like to my girlfriend, I'm like, all my friends are
- 34:52Speaker 1: going to the pub right now, and you know I
- 34:54Speaker 1: don't want to go with them, obviously, but yeah, I'll
- 34:56Speaker 1: just go for one. I'll just go for I'll go,
- 34:58Speaker 1: but I don't want to do it, you know, get
- 35:00Speaker 1: I don't want to and I just want to hit the.
- 35:01Speaker 2: PJ to the pub.
- 35:04Speaker 1: I want to get a PJ to the pub and
- 35:06Speaker 1: then yeah, just to stay there. I don't want it
- 35:08Speaker 1: to be all I'd much rather stay here with you
- 35:10Speaker 1: and drink nothing, watch the thing you want to watch
- 35:13Speaker 1: on TV. I'd hate to be in a PJ going
- 35:16Speaker 1: to the pub with all my best friends. That would suck.
- 35:21Speaker 1: And then I just want her to be say you
- 35:23Speaker 1: can do it. She is like the chair umpire in
- 35:25Speaker 1: my life. Now that I think about it.

- 35:42Speaker 2: We've got empty champagne glasses, which is not very French.
- 35:45Speaker 2: But I love Burner, so he does that. There's this
- 35:48Speaker 2: clip online. Everyone in the comments is like pro Burner
- 35:51Speaker 2: and just like, I just love that he's kind of
- 35:53Speaker 2: become this meme online. It's like Lord Tomic proving again
- 35:56Speaker 2: his goat status with incredible honesty and transparency, true example
- 36:00Speaker 2: to all other players who can only dream of such authenticity.
- 36:05Speaker 2: I just love It's true it is true. It's great.
- 36:11Speaker 2: You know what, Sam, He goes on to win this match.

- 37:28Speaker 1: winner again. Will an anagram be on this show when
- 37:32Speaker 1: you're doing that kind of stuff?
- 37:38Speaker 2: Coming it to the end of the pod. But we
- 37:40Speaker 2: have had huge tennis news overnight.
- 37:43Speaker 1: Yeah, straight onto our desk, straight on. It came to it.
- 37:48Speaker 1: We have a desk here.
- 37:49Speaker 2: I'm doing this with papers right now. I'm shuffling papers
- 37:52Speaker 2: right now.
- 37:53Speaker 1: It's breaking newoop. It's a scoop. It's like George Bush
- 37:56Speaker 1: when he found out about nine to eleven the kids thing.
- 37:59Speaker 1: You were doing pod, someone came and whispered in your ear,
- 38:02Speaker 1: this has happened, Lizzie. You're not gonna believe this. And
- 38:05Speaker 1: you just see your face processing the information, like.
- 38:08Speaker 2: What this cannot be. It's a tight tennis.
- 38:12Speaker 1: So it's very tight.
- 38:14Speaker 2: And you've probably already seen it.
- 38:16Speaker 1: It's been out for quite a bit of time.
- 38:18Speaker 2: Serena Williams is coming back. She did do the drug testing.
- 38:25Speaker 2: We all knew that and everyone was asking are you
- 38:28Speaker 2: coming back? Are you coming back? And she kind of
- 38:29Speaker 2: avoided the question. And here is the proof. She has
- 38:32Speaker 2: registered for.
- 38:33Speaker 1: Queen's the Queen's Club tournament.
- 38:36Speaker 2: Queen's Club.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Yeah, the Queen's Cub Talk which so looking at the
- 38:39Speaker 1: grass court summer very interesting. I guess eyeing off what
- 38:42Speaker 1: she maybe will do in Wimbledon or something. She's looking
- 38:45Speaker 1: to play double. She's forty four. I'm not saying that's
- 38:48Speaker 1: too old. I'm just putting that fact out.
- 38:50Speaker 2: I feel like there's another opportunity for you to.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Just say that we're at forty four. It's like grandfather time.
- 38:56Speaker 1: It's underfigure, it's too old, Serena, what are you doing? Look?
- 39:00Speaker 1: I just think it's like, you know, doubles is a
- 39:03Speaker 1: great part of tennis. We love doubles, but it's like
- 39:06Speaker 1: if we what are you doing? It's like you're not
- 39:09Speaker 1: doing it in singles, are you because it's like you'll
- 39:11Speaker 1: just get destroyed in singles.
- 39:12Speaker 2: Well, she might be back. I think doubles is a
- 39:15Speaker 2: nice little.
- 39:17Speaker 1: It's a gateway drug, a little toe dip, and then
- 39:20Speaker 1: before you know it, back in singles it's getting destroyed.
- 39:23Speaker 1: It's just look, as they say, in boxing, it's like
- 39:26Speaker 1: these people they fight and father Time always wins. You
- 39:31Speaker 1: were so father Time. I love boxing because it's one
- 39:34Speaker 1: of my favorite sports, and I think it's you know,
- 39:37Speaker 1: there's a lot of parallels with tennis because it is
- 39:39Speaker 1: one on one.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Yeah, but in boxing, father time wins because you're getting
- 39:43Speaker 2: constantly hit in the head. These tennis players they've got
- 39:47Speaker 2: full cognitive.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Yeah I know they don't have c T, but they
- 39:50Speaker 1: are still they don't know what else to do.
- 39:53Speaker 2: Yeah, and maybe maybe you know, she's a little bit bored.
- 39:56Speaker 2: She's got she just wants to get fit again, and
- 39:58Speaker 2: she's like, this is the end the way. I know how,
- 40:00Speaker 2: But why didn't you do what like come to bf
- 40:02Speaker 2: T BFT.
- 40:09Speaker 1: Down there at BFT, you can have a little coffee
- 40:12Speaker 1: after what's happening. Why do you need to register to
- 40:16Speaker 1: play in a.
- 40:17Speaker 2: Professional do some pilities like every other forty four year old?
- 40:24Speaker 1: But would you watch? Is it good for tennis or
- 40:26Speaker 1: in coming back? I think the enter I think yes,
- 40:29Speaker 1: it's a bit of hype.
- 40:30Speaker 2: She was rumored to play doubles with young Canadian Vicki
- 40:35Speaker 2: and Boco, which I think according to dil.
- 40:38Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some news just came across your desk. Another
- 40:42Speaker 1: desks injured. Boca might be.
- 40:45Speaker 2: Injured and might not be able to play the doubles.
- 40:48Speaker 2: I did see a press conference where Mbogoogo has been
- 40:51Speaker 2: asked about this constantly. Is she going to play doubles
- 40:53Speaker 2: with sen which you would for sure, so one hundred
- 40:56Speaker 2: percent you would, as if you wouldn't play with your idol. Yeah,
- 41:01Speaker 2: but now she's injured, that might be a little bit
- 41:03Speaker 2: of a spanner in the world.
- 41:05Speaker 1: I'm sure she'll be able to find someone will which
- 41:07Speaker 1: will still work. I think it's good for tennis, and
- 41:08Speaker 1: I think people are going to watch and people are
- 41:10Speaker 1: interested on it. But is it what Serenas should be
- 41:13Speaker 1: doing with the time. Not for me to say, Serena,
- 41:17Speaker 1: I will weigh in and I agree she should be
- 41:20Speaker 1: down there at b FT. Maybe it out. Yeah, she
- 41:25Speaker 1: could start her own gym or just become like a
- 41:27Speaker 1: club tennis coach, you know, one of the great Have
- 41:31Speaker 1: you got.
- 41:31Speaker 2: Today, Oh, miss Williams, just be up there.
- 41:35Speaker 1: At Darren Vood and local council giving tennis lessons for
- 41:38Speaker 1: me doing a junior clinic, got a Saturday morning. That's
- 41:40Speaker 1: where you should be, Serena, giving back, giving back. Indeed, anyway,
- 41:45Speaker 1: I can't wait to watch her, which I will.
- 41:47Speaker 2: We love you, Serena. Maybe there's always the next time.
- 41:52Speaker 2: Next week, Mike will be back.
- 41:55Speaker 1: You have flown back in he will will he be back?
- 41:58Speaker 2: I don't know. I reckon the powers that be Yeah,
- 42:01Speaker 2: maybe mister Abdo will say, Michael.
- 42:04Speaker 1: We're not getting work on some more anagrams.
- 42:07Speaker 2: Take a take a hiatus from tennis.
- 42:13Speaker 1: Now, Michael will be back. He'll be back for the
- 42:15Speaker 1: wrap up, for the wrap up. Is that is that
- 42:17Speaker 1: a net positive?
- 42:18Speaker 2: We don't know.
- 42:19Speaker 1: We don't know.
- 42:19Speaker 2: I don't know the Father of Time. I almost ship
- 42:27Speaker 2: on my pants.
