According to the internet, pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America. I'm a recent convert and it's become my favorite hobby. And it seems like everyone I play with is also a recent convert obssessed with their new favorite hobby, so for once, the internet might be right.

Check out this episode with Brandon Nsekpong for a rundown on pickleball, his journey from table tennis to basketball to pro pickleball, and what it would take for me to be his doubles partner at a tournament [hint: nothing short of a miracle]!
