Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What Two Empty Nesters with Gold Medals and Matching Outfits Can Teach Us About Starting Over with Cecy Feld and Holly Kerr
Q: How has the lifestyle element (fashion, branding, community) influenced your approach to the sport?
Fashion and branding became a core part of our identity; it helped us attract sponsors, connect with a like-minded community, and transform pickleball into a lifestyle that blends competition with self-expression and fun.
What Two Empty Nesters with Gold Medals and Matching Outfits Can Teach Us About Starting Over with Cecy Feld and Holly Kerr
Q: What sparked the idea to chronicle your road to senior pro?
The combination of empty nesting, time to focus on a shared goal, and a strong social-media opportunity made us see how we could both document and inspire others while showcasing the journey, outfits, drills, and strategies.
DUPR Reset: The Ratings Rollercoaster, the Reality Check, and Tito Machado’s Take
Q: What is the DUPR Reset and what are the rules?
The DUPR Reset is a period where players can play eight matches with at least two different partners over a six-week window to see if their current rating reflects their actual level, with no risk if the reset does not yield a higher rating; if it does, the new rating can be kept.
How College Football's Wild West is a Warning Every Pickleball Player Should Hear with Jay Paterno
Q: With NIL, does the money outpace the governance of college sports, and what might be a solution?
Yes, the money has outpaced governance, leading to a lack of uniform rules and ongoing litigation. A potential solution is adopting a model akin to the NFL—treating athletes more like employees with a formal collective bargaining framework and robust guardrails to regulate transfers and compensation.
How College Football's Wild West is a Warning Every Pickleball Player Should Hear with Jay Paterno
Q: Can you give our audience a quick summary of what NIL stands for and how it began?
NIL stands for Name, Image, and Likeness. It began as a legal change allowing athletes to benefit from endorsements and other opportunities, reflecting the reality that their athletic brand has value and should be able to monetize that value much like performers in other fields.
