  • Calvin is the best part of this

    I love hearing Calvin’s insights and opinions. I don’t like hearing about George’s vegan diet and exercise - boring. The best parts are when they all talk about the tennis and tennis players.

  • A top three tennis Podcast

    It’s great listening to James, George and Calvin chatting about the current or just finished week of tennis. Their analysis is always spot on, well thought out and also humorous on occasion. I particularly enjoy the insider insights from Calvin as he is a coach on the doubles ATP tour.

    There is a great camaraderie between the three of them and James is an excellent host, keeping the podcast tight and professional.

    As a female, I enjoy their male banter!
