  • Let you guest speak

    Please let your guests speak and don’t inject your own words until they finish. And some of the things the host says are rather off putting. For example, host asked what shots top junior need to have and the guest said they should have all the shots. The host replied that’s basic in a dismissive way. But really? How often do you see a drop shot in WTA ? How often do you see serve and volley? How often do you see a knife like slice?

    Let the guest speak and let them finish.

  • Episode 210 was Awesome

    Episode 210 with Andy Murray’s strength coach was a great episode. That is part of an overall wonderful podcast.

    I would love to hear an episode about how CrossFit aligns with Tennis for the 3.5–4.0 level club player. Just a suggestion from an avid.

  • Good Host, with Great Guests

    I discovered the podcast only after buying some Tennis Match Journals from Fabio. I was looking for something for my daughter who plays tennis and gets really emotional on court. I thought perhaps writing things down might help her. And thanks to the internet found Fabio’s journals. But then I stated getting weekly emails about the podcasts. Now I listen every week. You have to kind of be a tennis geek to get into some of them, but it’s usually good stuff! Keep up the good work!
