- 3:58Speaker 2: I already looked crazy on in this track suit.
- 4:01Speaker 1: The tracks rules. Everyone loves it. Yeah.

- 4:25Speaker 3: staff at the AO shop is working their ass off
- 4:27Speaker 3: and we appreciate them. And you're in the track suit
- 4:31Speaker 3: and people think you're just like they're convincing people to
- 4:34Speaker 3: buy it.
- 4:35Speaker 4: I think, yeah, I think when I was modeling up
- 4:37Speaker 4: and down the hallway, Yeah, they were impressed.
- 4:41Speaker 1: It's embarrassing to go into a store wearing.
- 4:43Speaker 4: Wearing the exact fit that's available at the store, yes,
- 4:47Speaker 4: and looking at it again being like, yeah it is,

- 6:03Speaker 1: we're tracking it because we're hovering. We're hovering.
- 6:06Speaker 3: Yeah, but we slipped to sixty five. Andy Roddick and
- 6:09Speaker 3: the Serve Podcast at forty three.
- 6:11Speaker 4: But ye, Sandy Roddick, that posts being around for ages
- 6:16Speaker 4: You know what, I think we'll bump us up our
- 6:17Speaker 4: interview later.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Oh, curios, can curios stick around for the chat and
- 6:24Speaker 3: the ping pong battle probably our most explosive ping pong battle.
- 6:29Speaker 2: And when we watched him last night, his knee was strapped.
- 6:33Speaker 3: Yeah, so we stuck around for the doubles. I mean,
- 6:36Speaker 3: we'll get into the Varenka match, which was the best,
- 6:38Speaker 3: but we stuck around for the doubles and he had
- 6:40Speaker 3: some strapping, some tape and bandages on a leg.
- 6:43Speaker 4: And we think that it could be because he snapped
- 6:47Speaker 4: our ping pong paddle over his knee.
- 6:49Speaker 1: Yeah, because I crushed him, You did, Mi.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Just like you crush those kids' dreams.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Stick around for that.
- 6:58Speaker 3: It is awesome, Like he was such a good chat
- 7:00Speaker 3: and it was really fun. Yeah, and he did like
- 7:03Speaker 3: our first you know, really volatile smashing the ping pong paddle,
- 7:09Speaker 3: which we have right there. If you're not on the

- 7:38Speaker 3: through in the doubles.
- 7:39Speaker 2: Yeah, that was it was us.

- 8:05Speaker 2: And you've got this Stan.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Yeah, but his.
- 8:14Speaker 3: Nickname is a Stanimal. But weirdly you were calling him Afghanistan.
- 8:19Speaker 3: He didn't seem to he didn't seem to take to
- 8:22Speaker 3: that as much for some reason.
- 8:26Speaker 1: But he we were there we.

- 8:48Speaker 2: Electric Energy Kia arena is my favorite?
- 8:51Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we talked about this in the well,
- 8:55Speaker 3: let's go through the matches, should we? We will close
- 8:57Speaker 3: it out with Stan because there's so much to talk
- 9:00Speaker 3: about with this stand battle going around the men's draw. Yesterday,
- 9:05Speaker 3: for day number five, Casper Rude throw in straight sets Overmonar.
- 9:09Speaker 3: But did you know this that Casper might have to
- 9:12Speaker 3: bail at any second.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Because his wife is.
- 9:16Speaker 2: I did see that.
- 9:18Speaker 3: Yeah, so he could you know, he's now through to
- 9:20Speaker 3: the third round, but he could just bounce and someone
- 9:23Speaker 3: gets a walkover.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Or he'll make it through. He's already getting out of
- 9:26Speaker 2: his fatherly judies. You see.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Well you don't think he goes. He leaves for the.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Birth of his child winning Like I'm help changing nappy,
- 9:35Speaker 2: I'm saying, I.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Mean, further proof to my pretty strongly held conviction that
- 9:42Speaker 1: children ruin everything.
- 9:44Speaker 3: I would agree with you can you tell we're both childless?
- 9:48Speaker 3: A Yeah, Like we said, there was just a lot
- 9:51Speaker 3: of matches that were straight, said, center over the Aussie
- 9:56Speaker 3: Duckworth and three.
- 9:57Speaker 1: Fritz went through pretty easily. This is my under the
- 10:01Speaker 1: radar old guy Marin Chilich.
- 10:04Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's like thirty eight.
- 10:05Speaker 1: I think he's pushing forty.
- 10:07Speaker 4: Yeah. Who are the old guys in Djokovic, Farenka, Manka Chilich.
- 10:11Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, yeah, so he's just crushed chap of Olla
- 10:16Speaker 3: of the Canadian.
- 10:19Speaker 1: And sits it passes out. Yes, how do you feel well?
- 10:24Speaker 4: I'm sad that we don't get to see his antics anymore.
- 10:27Speaker 4: But we kind of predicted that when we saw him
- 10:29Speaker 4: wandering through the botanical gardens in his truck suit and
- 10:32Speaker 4: we kind of said he's going out this.
- 10:34Speaker 1: Yeah, we said no.
- 10:36Speaker 3: But he made it to the second round, but then
- 10:38Speaker 3: came up against Mahach who took him out in four
- 10:41Speaker 3: sets too tight tiebreakers at the end. But yeah, you
- 10:45Speaker 3: can't be walking around a park in a leopard print
- 10:48Speaker 3: pantaloon Australian accent.
- 10:52Speaker 2: You can find him at the zoo now he's doing tours.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Is he dressing the leopard print?
- 10:57Speaker 2: Yeah, he's in the cave.
- 10:58Speaker 3: He's in the exhibition, the what do they call it?
- 11:01Speaker 3: The enclosure and he's crawling around on all fours. Yeah,
- 11:08Speaker 3: I think in the men's Yeah, outside, Djokovic rolled as well.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Unfortunately Sweeney went out, but to Ben Shelton, who we
- 11:16Speaker 3: love to watch the All Italian affair, Mazzetti and Senego.
- 11:22Speaker 3: Mazzetti took that out in three and then Bassi already
- 11:27Speaker 3: made it through to the second round. You probably remember
- 11:30Speaker 3: him from qualifiers doing the choke celebration. Oh yeah, but yeah,
- 11:36Speaker 3: Karen Kashanov. Can we talk about this that Karen Kashanov.
- 11:40Speaker 3: I don't know if you're familiar with him. Giant Russian
- 11:43Speaker 3: guy looks like a Hamsworth. Oh yeah, and his first
- 11:47Speaker 3: name is Karen.
- 11:49Speaker 2: Karen spelled like Karen, like Karen.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Yeah, so the the.
- 11:56Speaker 3: You know, Karen's used as an insult these days. And
- 11:59Speaker 3: when you think of a car and you think of
- 12:00Speaker 3: a lady with like a lot of fringe and foils
- 12:04Speaker 3: and foil's name asking to speak to the manager, you
- 12:08Speaker 3: don't think of a giant Russian hun, No, you don't.
- 12:10Speaker 2: He's a giant Russian hunk. He's very hymns worth like, right, ladies.
- 12:15Speaker 1: I know, but could you date a guy named Karen? Oh?
- 12:19Speaker 2: Might shorten it, he's going to middle name.
- 12:24Speaker 3: His middle name is Susan. And then also another assie out,
- 12:28Speaker 3: Rinky Hijakato went out to Vasha Roh. Probably the biggest
- 12:31Speaker 3: upset of the day was Belinda Bencicic went out to Bartunkova.
- 12:36Speaker 3: So Benchicic, who will get to in a future interview.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Oh yes, because I said Benchic that sounds like something
- 12:42Speaker 3: you need to.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Apply cream on and.
- 12:46Speaker 6: What.
- 12:49Speaker 3: But probably the other match of the day besides Stan
- 12:52Speaker 3: Maddy Inglis taking out Lauris Siegmund Kubler's fiance.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Is that right?
- 12:58Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 13:00Speaker 4: Yeah, because they were saying to him because he went
- 13:03Speaker 4: and watched the game and then she got a well
- 13:06Speaker 4: nice little paycheck for going through Oh yeah, and so
- 13:09Speaker 4: did he right, And then he was like, but not
- 13:11Speaker 4: as much as Maddie. They're going to share it now,
- 13:15Speaker 4: he's entitled to it.
- 13:16Speaker 1: I guess he is. Yeah, that's how it works, how
- 13:19Speaker 1: it works.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Yeah, So we talk about stam No, I thought we'd just.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Brush over it. Let's talk about step. I mean, this
- 13:30Speaker 2: was the moment for me, the match of the tournament
- 13:32Speaker 2: so far, so unbelievable. Yeah, vibes unbelievable.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Very very good.
- 13:41Speaker 5: Uh.
- 13:41Speaker 1: The just in the crowd.
- 13:43Speaker 3: I think the highlight of the people in attendance was
- 13:47Speaker 3: the Willy Wonka.
- 13:48Speaker 1: Oh.
- 13:48Speaker 2: He was sending it the whole game.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Yeah, he loved it. Yeah, match, thank you, she's learning.
- 13:57Speaker 2: You got over sending it the whole much.
- 14:01Speaker 4: He was up on his feet. There was that beautiful
- 14:04Speaker 4: moment they dropped a beer onto court. Yeah, accidentally. It
- 14:07Speaker 4: looked very innocent, and then Stan picked it up and
- 14:10Speaker 4: sort of motion drinking it and then he called back
- 14:13Speaker 4: to it at the end.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Amazing. He's got comedy chops.
- 14:16Speaker 2: Yeah, he was having fun. He would like to see that.
- 14:20Speaker 1: He was pumping up the crowd. Was awesome.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Pointing at people with Swiss flags and like, you know,
- 14:25Speaker 3: getting them on their feet and you know, the fist
- 14:28Speaker 3: pump all the way. I find like, you know, or comics.
- 14:31Speaker 3: If I'm on stage and I point at someone in
- 14:33Speaker 3: like fist pump.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Like, it goes worse.
- 14:36Speaker 2: They like, what mean why are you pointing at me?
- 14:39Speaker 2: Are you going to ask me what I do for
- 14:40Speaker 2: a living?
- 14:43Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 14:43Speaker 3: So four to three at deuce in the final set,
- 14:48Speaker 3: the other player gia, Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's like when
- 14:53Speaker 3: someone says something to you.
- 14:55Speaker 2: No, yeah, well I'm going off the umpire.
- 14:59Speaker 1: Yeah, it was.
- 15:00Speaker 3: It sounds like when yeah, yeah, yeah, say something to me,
- 15:04Speaker 3: tell me something about you, Lizzie Who, and then I'll
- 15:07Speaker 3: show you how that sounds.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Hi, my name's Lizzie Who.
- 15:11Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah right, yeah, yeah. So he broke his shoe, Yes.
- 15:23Speaker 2: He broke his shoe. You have to go and do
- 15:25Speaker 2: a full lace.
- 15:26Speaker 1: You see this on hardcore. It's like the players and
- 15:28Speaker 1: he he was awesome to watch, like he came through
- 15:31Speaker 1: qualities and like he was playing his shoes off out there.
- 15:36Speaker 2: But he also wore two ankle braces.
- 15:38Speaker 3: Did you notice that knee braces? Ankle braces. I'm pretty
- 15:43Speaker 3: sure double ankle bras.
- 15:45Speaker 2: Yeah, because at the end he looked very sore. Oh,
- 15:48Speaker 2: he was like he was cramped.
- 15:49Speaker 1: This is the thing. It was such an awesome match.
- 15:51Speaker 3: It gets to the or you take game, It gets
- 15:54Speaker 3: to the tie break in the final set, and he
- 15:58Speaker 3: starts cramping up or his legs starting and he was.
- 16:01Speaker 2: He's doing an Asian squad.
- 16:02Speaker 1: Oh, the party squad.
- 16:04Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, it was returning.
- 16:07Speaker 3: So yeah, it was just such a shame because it's like,
- 16:11Speaker 3: is he gonna have to forfeit? Basically in the final
- 16:15Speaker 3: set time yeah, it did look like he was going to,
- 16:17Speaker 3: but he, I mean, to his credit, got through it,
- 16:20Speaker 3: and Stan just kind of didn't let it phase him
- 16:23Speaker 3: at all and was like vintage Verenka, the most beautiful
- 16:26Speaker 3: backhand Antennas.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Can we talk about the lob?
- 16:29Speaker 1: Oh the lob amazing? Can that?
- 16:33Speaker 2: Can a lob be shot of the tournament?
- 16:36Speaker 1: It should be up there?
- 16:38Speaker 2: It should be up there.
- 16:39Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 16:39Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to challenge around the nut shot,
- 16:42Speaker 1: but I mean what it looked like.
- 16:44Speaker 2: It was going out and then all of a sudden,
- 16:46Speaker 2: it just dropped like a vertical.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Yeah, and the crowd went yeah, I went, even went,
- 16:54Speaker 3: I went yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah.
- 17:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 17:01Speaker 3: So and then Stan took it out with some you know,
- 17:05Speaker 3: his backhand was just firing on all cylinders. And then,
- 17:08Speaker 3: like you said, at the end of the match, they said,
- 17:11Speaker 3: he said he was going to have a well earned drink.
- 17:13Speaker 3: He was going to finish that beer that he picked up.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Hell yeah, yeah, hell hell.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Why not.
- 17:19Speaker 3: He's forty years old four and a half hours that match.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Oh he's going to be sore today.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.
- 17:26Speaker 2: When when you hit your forties, Oh, nothing's recovering very quickly.
- 17:30Speaker 2: I stand.
- 17:32Speaker 1: I was sore after playing pickleball with children.
- 17:35Speaker 3: Can imagine how he feels. So should we get into
- 17:39Speaker 3: the headline call.
- 17:44Speaker 2: The enthusiast But we haven't. Okay, No, I'm excited because well,
- 17:49Speaker 2: it's no shortage of drama, is it.
- 17:51Speaker 3: Well, I mean, like we said, yesterday was seeming a
- 17:54Speaker 3: little boring and people just kind of getting through matches
- 17:57Speaker 3: and straight sets.
- 17:58Speaker 1: But then we had beef beef, big beef.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Big bee, spicy beef, soccer beef.
- 18:06Speaker 1: Oh, soccer beef.
- 18:08Speaker 2: Wag you beef?
- 18:09Speaker 1: I can't say that?
- 18:10Speaker 2: Can I say it?
- 18:11Speaker 1: You can?
- 18:12Speaker 6: Maybe?
- 18:12Speaker 3: Maybe the oscaka beef with her match against Aronachristeia.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Yeah, you could see the vision here.
- 18:23Speaker 3: Christeia was upset that Osaka kept saying come on between serfs,
- 18:29Speaker 3: So Christeia would fault on a first serve and Osaka
- 18:34Speaker 3: will be like, come on, come on to pump herself up.
- 18:36Speaker 1: But pretty loud.
- 18:37Speaker 4: Really, Yeah, we've had her in the studio before. Not
- 18:41Speaker 4: a very loud speaker. No, actually, like quite a soft talk.
- 18:45Speaker 1: Yeah, but.
- 18:49Speaker 2: Why is she doing loud come ons out on the court?
- 18:52Speaker 1: Yeah? Oh so you don't agree, Like, what do you

- 18:58Speaker 1: Of it.
- 18:58Speaker 4: Yeah, well I'm not really you sure because I want
- 19:01Speaker 4: to Yeah, if it's like, come on, after she's done
- 19:04Speaker 4: a fault, come.
- 19:05Speaker 2: On, I'm not I'm not really into that.
- 19:07Speaker 3: I was just going to see if I could just
- 19:08Speaker 3: interrupt you. But come on, you know that thing we
- 19:12Speaker 3: discussed before that we were going to do it totally
- 19:17Speaker 3: forgot about. So Christaia was upset about that. And then
- 19:25Speaker 3: the frosty handshake at the net.
- 19:28Speaker 2: It was frosty.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love like it's just I love
- 19:34Speaker 1: the beef.

- 19:48Speaker 1: the court. We want a bit of a bit of ficiness,
- 19:51Speaker 1: a bit of spiciness. And then uh Osaka was clearly
- 19:56Speaker 1: taken aback she.
- 19:58Speaker 4: Was and then that translated in the you Sarana Crsseeia
- 20:02Speaker 4: is a tough competitor.
- 20:03Speaker 2: She came to play tonight. What did it take to
- 20:05Speaker 2: get through that one?
- 20:07Speaker 8: Apparently a lot of come on, so she was angry
- 20:09Speaker 8: about but whatever.

- 20:46Speaker 4: she looked angry.
- 20:47Speaker 3: Yeah, so Osaka went through in three sets.
- 20:49Speaker 1: She didn't do it.
- 20:50Speaker 3: Imagine, okay, having beef with someone dressed like a jellyfish.
- 20:56Speaker 1: It's just so dumb.

- 21:06Speaker 2: I'm waving my.
- 21:07Speaker 1: Head yeah, like you are. And that's what Osaka should

- 22:15Speaker 1: Is that right?
- 22:16Speaker 2: Gucci nice?

- 22:22Speaker 3: They called him the Gouch, the goot, and he was
- 22:24Speaker 3: just a giant, redhead guy. And you know, it would
- 22:26Speaker 3: have been perfect for the GUC and Gucci to hook
- 22:29Speaker 3: up the elas alas the GUC was never good enough
- 22:35Speaker 3: a cameraman. Would you say a cameraman was under attack here?
- 22:39Speaker 2: This is a camera with someone operating it.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:42Speaker 3: I don't think it hit anyone, otherwise he probably would
- 22:45Speaker 3: have been booted from the tournament. This is a Corentine

- 22:56Speaker 3: frustrated during a point in.
- 22:58Speaker 1: His doubles match.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Let's see what else was happening in headline news from

- 23:10Speaker 3: and Coconacus and their doubles.
- 23:12Speaker 2: Match ten thousand likes and they got up well above
- 23:15Speaker 2: ten thousand.
- 23:15Speaker 1: Well above ten thousand likes, and he did not.
- 23:18Speaker 2: He didn't do it.
- 23:19Speaker 1: He said the match was too close to do the
- 23:26Speaker 1: under arm serves. I should have done it in the
- 23:27Speaker 1: warm up. Who cares about an under arm serve in
- 23:30Speaker 1: the warm up?
