G'day everyone, and welcome to episode 47 of My Guest List Pod! In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Nick Emel, the creator and host of the hit comedy and edutainment show, The Tennis 10ish Podcast. Nick's show is renowned for its top ten-ish lists on a wide range of topics, from pop culture and history to true crime and the downright bizarre. With millions of downloads worldwide, Nick has built a reputation for delivering surprising facts, sharp wit, and plenty of laughs.


Nick Emel’s journey as a podcaster began in 2018 alongside his friend Brandon, who became a co-host and a vital part of the show’s identity. Their chemistry and shared humour created a unique listening experience that resonated with audiences, garnering millions of downloads and establishing a loyal fan base. The duo's dynamic was marked by playful banter and mutual respect, which added depth to their discussions about various topics, ranging from pop culture to history. This camaraderie not only made the content engaging but also fostered a sense of familiarity among listeners, who tuned in not just for the lists but for the relationship between the hosts.


Before we start, here are some of the top 10-ish reasons I’m excited about today’s guest:

Number 10 — he’s smart,

Number 7 — he’s funny,

Number 3 — he loves a good list,

And Number 1 — he said yes to an interview!
