Rennae and Caitlin discuss bad behavior online and oncourt—from neckbeard gamblers harassing players to commentator tete a tetes.

Of course Rennae and Caitlin beam in from a Racquet Retreat in the desert to get into the first great tournament on US soil, Indian Wells! But first, we touch base on what's up for the future of the USTA: Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley's appointment as CEO of the US governing body and how it needs to change. Plus: Serena's comeback seems realer by the minute.

Live from Melbourne, Rennae and Petko break down the men's and women's draw ahead of the Australian Open—from who's in form to who's in trouble, the Happy Slam promises to have it all.

e do our damndest not to talk ONLY about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, who were so clearly ahead of the rest of the pack that it's hard not to give them all the awards. Plus: what do players like Taylor Fritz, Ben Shelton and Alex Zverev need to do to be competitive with the elite pack?

From the podiums to the pork chops, we review the year's highs, lows and whoas. Plus: Coco Gauff is the new face of the Mercedes Benz's WTA title sponsorship, and is Serena actually really coming back despite what she says on social media? We think the answer is... yes

Spain and Italy can't keep their hands off each other, and Rennae ever so slightly relents on the weekly topic of Justine Henin's majestic backhand! As always, we're here to solve all of tennis' problems—from the NCAAs to PTPAs, Tour Finals (just join em, already!) and of course, team competition. As ever, we're thankful for all of you!

We recap the (predictably, but satisfying) ATP Tour Finals, discuss the Gazprom Open, bid farewell to Chris Eubanks and debate the justifiable entry into the International Tennis Hall of Fame of the GOAT (in our house, her name is Mary Carillo) as well as some guy named Roger Federer. Plus: who got snubbed and why?

Yes, we recap the WTA Finals on-court results and off-court statements (looking at you on both counts, Elena Rybakina!) and preview what we hope is an exciting ATP Finals. In the spirit of constructive criticism, any billionaire who wants to pay for the year-end tournament to be in front of a rowdy crowd gets a free tennis lesson from Rennae among other prizes!

We love the new Battle of the Sexes! Just kidding, we hate it and its cynical, gross and insultingly crude existence. We talk all things WTA Finals—matchups, blowouts, blowups and more, as well as go in depth about the brilliant critique of the failure of tennis' establishment to offer good digital content. Sorry, but watching players create meme content is an insult to our intelligence. Plus: shoutout to a Mandarin speaking ...
After an action-packed week, Rennae and Caitlin are back, and the end of the year is staring us down the barrel! We talk Saudi Masters 1000, Mira Andreeva's visa snafu and lessons for everyone to learn. If you're gonna wake up in the morning and play pro tennis, come to WIN. Otherwise, call it a day and head to the Maldives.

Well how about those cousins—what the triumphant showing in Shanghai between Valentin Vacherot and Arthur Rinderknech (and let's not forget their lady cousin Chloe Pacquet) means for Novak Djokovic's final act as well as Meddy and the lost generation. Plus: A stubborn Coco prevails in Wuhan, JPeg's exhausting run to the finals and a Nick Kyrgios in his feelings about getting a podcast snub from Andy Murray.

At this point, who is going to be able to make it through this meat grinder of a season? Do the the tour finals still matter no matter how many friends they lose, or people they leave dead and bloodied and dying along the way? Plus: No matter who REALLY started the conspiracy theories about courts getting slower (looking at you, Roger), you can count on Alex Zverev to whine about it.

The tennis establishment is facing yet another complaint from players, and this one's got the top players signed on and is repped by the big guns—Larry Scott. Let's see if they can make progress on meaningful profit sharing, player organizing and schedule changes. They'd better before the Asia swing completely collapses from retirements! We talk Coco vs. Belinda, Meddy vs. Zverev and the encouraging addition to Lerner Tien's ...
Rennae and Caitlin talk about how now, MORE THAN EVER, tennis needs a compelling third act to its season, not a bunch of under-attended team competitions, exos that nobody cares about and a slew of tournaments in great places like Seoul that are rife with withdrawals. Plus: We touch on the Taylor Townsend controversy, a Czech doubles rekindling and some interesting signs for next year.

No, that wasn't just for a very disruptive US Open men's final guest that nobody wanted who made everyone wait, it was for pretty much everything else, from the scintillating second half of the singles tournament to the nail-biting wheelchair finals that gave Tokito Oda a career golden slam. We break down the resurgent FAA and Naomi Osaka campaigns, the finals that weren't for Sinner and Anisimova, and of course discuss the Carlito...
Rennae and Caitlin jam on a post-Naomi Osaka/Coco Gauff recap minutes after the one-sided match, weigh in—whether you like it or not—on the Taylor Townsend/Jelena Ostapenko fracas and set up a showdown between our men's faves (and respective countrymen) Felix Auger Aliassime and Alex DeMinaur.

Our favorite New Yorkers (who don't sound like it) break down the men's and women's draws and discuss the perils of natural deodorant live from the Seaport Racquet Club.

Rennae and Caitlin are reunited—with working mics—to discuss the mayhem on the business end of the Canadian Open tournaments, plus the beginning frenzy of Cincy. Meddy's spiritual crisis, Osaka's low moment, Shelton's upswing and Sinner's dominance. It's all here!

Rennae sits down with one half of the Giggly Squad, former D1 tennis player, comedian and cat trafficker Hannah Berner to talk about everything from Netflix specials to Coco Gauff’s (relatable) serve woes and off-court serves. Bonus appearance from Boots the cat.t
