Pickleball Fashion Wars, Smokin’ Ernie Bets & Standing Out | Smiley Riley

Send us a text

👀 Country club chic or party store raid? Pickleball fashion has two extremes, and we’re calling them out. From crisp visors to full-blown Elvis jumpsuits, where do you stand?

💥 Plus, Smiley Riley joins us to talk:

• How to stand out in pickleball—on and off the court.
• A $500 Ernie bet—who’s got the guts to take it?
• The wildest pickleball travel hacks (including one that made the news).

🚨 And in Dink or Destroy, we debate adults throwing birthday parties at Chuck E. Cheese—fun or full-blown crisis?

🎧 Tune in, weigh in, and keep the dink soft and the energy BIG! 💥
